JOHN HENRY MEMORIAL TOURNAMENT

Information

 

PARTICIPANTS

Thank you for supporting and participating in the John Henry Memorial Tournament.  This tournament is now in its 43rd year. This year, we will be hosting over 50 teams with more than 750 players.  The intent of the tournament is to provide an atmosphere for Local and House League players that promotes citizenship, goodwill and sportsmanship through competition. The founder, John Henry, was a native North American and long time resident of the Strathroy area.  He spent countless hours coaching and managing Local and House League Teams.

 

The following is information that you will find useful and we ask that you pass this information on to your team:

 

LOCATION

All games are played at the Gemini Sportsplex in Strathroy.

 

SCHEDULE AND GAME SCORES

All game schedules and game charts are available on the www.sdmha.org website.  We will have a live feed on the website where you can monitor scores.

 

FEE

The fee of entry is $700.00 for all divisions.  Gate is included.

 

SIGN IN TABLE

Once your team has arrived for their first scheduled game, we request that each team have a bench staff member report to the second floor of the Gemini Sportsplex to the SDMHA Office.  Team packages will be provided at this time.   Game sheets can also be signed by all bench staff - coaches, trainers, and managers at the SDMHA Office before each game.

 

OFFICIAL ROSTERS

OMHA official team roster will need to be handed in before the start of the teams’ first game to the SDMHA Office and left for the duration of the tournament.  For those teams that have not had their rosters returned to them by the OMHA, five game sheets will be required as proof of a player’s eligibility.

 

Teams outside of OMHA (example: Alliance) must present an approved official roster from their governing body along with a travel permit.

 

  

GAME SHEETS

Game sheets have been printed for each game.  Each team is responsible for filling in the roster.  Each team will have to designate their affiliated players by writing ‘AP’ after their names.  The game sheet is to be filled out by both teams at the SDMHA Office.  The game sheet should not leave the SDMHA Office until the timekeeper picks it up prior to the beginning of the game.  The timekeeper will return it to the SDMHA Office following the game.  All teams must be ready to play 15 minutes before each scheduled game time.

 

RAFFLE TABLE

Items for the raffle table will be assembled in the lobby.  For those not present if and when their names are drawn, notifications will be made by phone.  All winners that have not claimed their prizes within 14 days from the end of the tournament will forfeit their claim on the prize.  GOOD LUCK!

 

RESTAURANTS

A listing of restaurants that have sponsored our tournament will be provided.  These businesses have chosen to support the tournament you are participating in.  Please keep them in mind when you are selecting an establishment for dining.

 

MAPS

Maps of Strathroy will be available in the tournament office.  If you require directions while at the tournament, please ask any of the tournament volunteers.  Once again, thank you for your participation in the 43rd John Henry Memorial Tournament.  We wish you all the best of luck.
