The Chesapeake Mens Senior Baseball League would like to extend an invitation to you and your teams to enter our 11th Annual Chesapeake MSBL Columbus Day Regional Tournament October 9-11th. We have three age divisions open -- 25+, 35+ and 45+ (wood bat). We have outstanding fields, terrific umpires, and great competition. This is one of the last MSBL Regional Tournament before the MSBL World Series and MSBL Fall Classic.
General Information, Policies, Rules, and Registration Forms can be obtained from our website at http://www.chesapeakemsbl.com/columbus.php. Please make sure you submit all the required forms along with payment. Due to unfortunate incidents in the past, only payment in full by money order or cashiers check will be accepted.
We hope each of you will consider joining us again this year. We can only accommodate a total of 24 teams and will confirm registration on a first to pay basis. We have 8 openings in the 25+ age division and 8 openings in the 35+ age division, and 8 openings in the 45+ Division. However, we will adjust age divisions if as necessary. The minimum number of teams needed for each age division is 4 in which case each team will play round robin and make the play-offs.
We also have a hotel sponsor for our tournament this year that is located right across the street from our showcase baseball field Joe Cannon Stadium. The name of the hotel is Spring Hill Suites by Marriott at Arundel Mills BWI. The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance to the Greene Turtle Sports Bar and Grill and the Arundel Mills Mall which hosts a Dave & Busters, Damons Bar and Grill, a 24 theatre movie complex, Bass Pro Shop as well as many other conveniences.

Played down there (DC area) for four years prior to moving here. They've got some really nice fields in the Maryland towns outside of DC (most specifically Shirley Povich Field in Montgomery County).
