Pierre to host 2022 U14 State Tournament

Pierre will host the U14 state tournament this summer.  This is great news as the tournament can bring as many as 16 teams to Pierre. It was scheduled to be held July 27 – 31st, which unfortunately is the same time as all other state tournaments. Discussions are being held to determine whether a better time frame can be established to help with the potential umpire shortfall.

More information regarding the tournament will be made as it becomes available.
