2019 Senior AA Provincial Championships
The second annual Senior AA Provincial Championships will be held at Hammond Park in Maple Ridge from Friday, August 30 to Monday, September 2nd. The tournament is organized by Baseball BC and will be hosted by Ridge Meadows Minor Baseball. Teams from Kamloops, Vernon, BC Minor (Junior Men), POCO Mens Baseball, Vancouver Recreational League, North Shore Men’s League, and LMBA. This is a CLUB championship tournament (not a league all star team). Players must have played one-half of their scheduled league games and LMBA teams are able to add two pick-ups – they must come from the LMBA and must have played a minimum of one-half of their scheduled games.
Teams planning to enter should plan to bring a roster of 15 players (no minimum number) which should include some pitching depth. Last year, the LMBA entered three teams – Newton Beavers, Coquitlam Cardinals, and Maple Ridge J’s. This year the LMBA will be allotted two berths and possibly a third depending upon total number of teams. If your team is interested and can confirm a committed roster, you are welcome to let us know – if we get more than three teams, we will work out an entry process. The tournament will be played over a holiday weekend (Labour Day) and may involve 5 seven inning games.
Just the Facts
Tournament Games will be played over the Labour Day Weekend (Friday, August 30 to Monday, September 2)
Entry Fee - $500 – likely will be a 4 game guarantee
Entry Deadline – June 1st – Entry fees are non-refundable
Team Rosters – Confirmed by League Presidents prior to tournament – there is no appeal process for players who do not meet the minimum number of league games

DEDICATION
WARREN Karsgaard
The Lower Mainland Baseball Association was greatly saddened by the passing of one of our original members, Warren Karsgaard on February 14, 2019. Warren was in attendance at a meeting sponsored by an American adult baseball group in July, 1994. When the group was unable to start up a recreational baseball league for adults, Warren and several others decided to start the Lower Mainland Baseball Association on their own. Warren, along with others, organized try-outs at Central Park in Burnaby, helped set up an Executive and served for several years as league registrar. His background experience in senior and youth baseball was invaluable to a group finding its way. For the next 24 years Warren participated as a player, manager, and Executive member and his contributions were significant in the growth and development of the league.
When original players were starting to “age out” of the 30+ Division, Warren worked closely with Ray Edger to start up a very successful 45+ division, thereby extending playing careers for everyone. Warren volunteered for 40 years in Richmond Minor Baseball and was deservedly recognized for his efforts by BC Minor Baseball, Richmond City Baseball, and the City of Richmond.
The Lower Mainland Baseball Association is proud to dedicate our 2019 season in memory of Warren Karsgaard.
A baseball life . . . . . well lived!
2019 LMBA REGISTRATION
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN *** PLEASE READ SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE REGISTERING
REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS - READ CAREFULLY
MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE THE FIELD ASKING FOR YOUR TEAM - SCROLL DOWN UNTIL YOU FIND YOUR TEAM. MAKE SURE THIS INFORMATION IS INCLUDED OTHERWISE NAMES WILL NOT APPEAR ON YOUR TEAM ROSTER LIST.
All players (even if they have played in the LMBA before) should make sure they are logged out of the LMBA website before creating a new account for the 2019 season. If a player wants to register for multiple teams they will need to create multiple accounts (one for each team). The same email address can be used multiple times, but each registration needs to be done separately. Players using old accounts to register for new seasons have caused issues in the past.
