[Vancouver, BC]- The South Hill Sports Association has been hard at work preparing for the upcoming Vancouver Challenge. The fields and stands have been spruced up, and the inside of the clubhouse repainted. The walk-in cooler is well stocked for the beverage garden. And there are some new food items on the menu this year, including a breakfast special of blueberry pancakes along with bacon, ham or sausages, for $4.95, and a dinner special on Saturday and Sunday of a barbequed half of a chicken, corn on the cob, and potato salad for $7.95. The weather is expected to be perfect – mostly sunny and a comfortable 20-25 degrees. This year we have also been fortunate to add Canadian Springs as a sponsor to supply large bottles of water for the dugouts. There should be some great ball games and the refreshments and hospitality will be first class. We encourage all fastpitch fans in the area to come on out and support the event. First pitch goes at 6:45 p.m. on Friday night when the Vancouver Grey Sox take on local stalwarts Richmond BC Linus Software Stealers, followed by Squamish BC v. Saskatoon Diamondbacks. SoCal Bombers, Portland C/R, and Prince George Black Bears join the action on Saturday morning Games continue all day Saturday and Sunday starting at 9:00 a.m. with the final slated to go at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday. For more information and updates during the event please check out the Vancouver Challenge webpage linked to www.vancouvergreysox.com
