First Responders Cup Tournament

The twelfth First Responders Tournament is scheduled for the weekend of September 7 - 8, 2013.

Some great videos taken of the Tournament Action by volunteer Greg Hudson.

Day One Action

Day Two Action

To all who came, competed, supported and just wanted to participate, without you all we could not do this tournament.

Despite near tornado conditions, we were able to complete the tournament, which is good.

The bad is the absence of resources to be able to ready other fields so that would not have to arbitrarily eliminate teams.  Next year with the addition of new fields at Washington-Lee High School and Wakefield High School we may not be faced with this disagreable action.

Our congratulations to the  Champions and those who were oh so close to winning.

Also our sincere thank you to the volunteers from Attain and all their wonderful volunteers, Washington-Lee High School Softball, Hugh and LIz M. who devoted all weekend to operate scoreboards, hand out balls and MVP medals and report scores.

Our very special thanks to Charlie Warren, Earl and Holly King, who prepared and lined the fields and to Megan Carney who coordinated all Arlington County Parks support.

Thank you to Colonel Fern O. Sumpter,

Arlington County Police Chief Douglas Scott, Arlington Fire Chief James Schwartz, John Crawford Commander of the Emergency Commmunications Center for their support at our opening ceremonies.

And finally a thank you to the U.S Army's Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps and the Arlington Fire Department for their support.

Absent any payments and still needing to fill tournament berths we will admit teams in order of their registration and the date and time of the team's registration payment.
