Another international baseball tournament could be coming our way

The International Baseball Association is looking at 2015 for the next big tournament in Thunder Bay.  Executive Director Warren Philp says they are looking at a warm up tournament for the Pan Am games.  Philp says its unclear how locations for future World Junior Championships will be chosen in the future, so they are waiting to see what happens before looking at that tournament again.  Last night prior to the City Council meeting, the Thunder Bay International Baseball Association present Pro Kids Thunder Bay with a check for 5 thousand dollars and then gave council a final report on the 2010 World Junior Baseball Championships.
