 After a spectacular Opening Ceremony on Friday July 4 that featured a great fireworks show and a speech by special guest Derrick Whittenburg (member of the 1983 NC State University National Championship basketball team), the tournament was filled with exciting ballgames, good sportsmanship and an exciting Championship Series with Dallas winning 4-3 twice to win the best of three series to become the AA state champions.

Dallas will advance to the AA Coach Pitch World Series in Texarkana, Arkansas on July 18. Youngsville will advance to the AA Machine Pitch World Series also in Texarkana on July 18.  Games can be watched on Jock-Jive, an internet streaming service.

Leland won the Sportsmanship Award. There were numerous teams in the running for the Sportsmanship Award.

Due to Eden Parks & Recreation not being able to field a team, we will change the top bracket of the Ozone tournament to a 6-team bracket. Reidsville will take the slot previously held by Eden Parks & Rec. The revised bracket is posted under Handouts. 

The revised schedule, as of 6-17-2014 for the Scholarship Practice games involving AAA & Majors teams on June 20-22 in Cerro Gordo and Clarkton is posted under Handouts.

The admission price is $3 for ages 13 and over. There is no charge for ages 12 and under. The net proceeds from the gates will go into the scholarship fund. in 2014, Dixie Youth Baseball provided $150,000 in scholarhips to high school seniors that played Dixie Youth Baseball.  

I will update this page tonight with the addresses of the parks in Cerro Gordo and Lumberton.
