The Ladner May Days Invitational Fast-pitch Tournament has been at the centre of the annual springtime celebration going back to the days when wheelbarrow races and arm wrestling were part of weekend.
This year teams from Richmond, Surrey, Port Coquitlam, Vancouver and Gibsons will join the host Ladner Masters to compete for the title and prize money.
The tournament begins Friday with a 7 p.m. game and runs through Saturday (8 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Sunday (8 a.m. to 3 p.m.).
Fans can expect some great fast-pitch action from eight competitive teams.
