Congratulations to all of the teams involved with the 2022 Pre-Majors World Series. Michael Streams, Pre-Majors Deputy Commissioner, served as the Tournament Director for the Pre-Majors World Series. He was ably assisted by the Louisiana Dixie Majors leadership and an excellent umpire crew headed by Dan Capps, National Umpire Coordinator. Our Opening Ceremony, coaches meetings and seven baseball games were held on the campus of the University of Louisiana – Monroe. ULM did an outstanding job in hosting our events and we were very impressed with the upgrades to Warhawk Field.

The Sterlington Sports Complex held fifteen games and everyone enjoyed the great experience afforded at this premier baseball venue. Working with Kerry Elee at the SSC is a real pleasure. Discover Monroe- West Monroe is an outstanding organization and we were honored to once again visit with their staff. The hospitality was exceptional. Scott Bruscato, Sr. Vice President at Discover Monroe – West Monroe, the local tournament host, is outstanding in all he does in conducting our World Series events. A special thank you to our hosts, tournament directors, LSPN and all related staff that supported the 2022 Pre-Majors World Series event. We will return to the Sterlington Sports Complex for the Pre- Majors World Series to be held in July of 2023.”
