FT Wiffle/Caputo Complex Unite!

This was announced over a month ago but the wheels have been set in motion for some wiffleball action for their area this summer. For now they're only planning to have a 4th of July Tournament and perhaps that might be all that they can get together for 2011. That will be more than good enough. FT Wiffle and Caputo Complex were two of the finest wiffleball leagues to follow on Youtube. Seriously. The quality and depth of their videos was unrivaled and when both leagues decided to simultaneously call it quits after high school graduation it left a void that other leagues have been trying to fill with their videos. When Steven Gethard shut down the lights of his precious Lancaster Field last summer in their farewell video it actually pulled at you emotionally. I said my piece in comments on each league's final videos pretty much saying 'yeah, yeah, you'll be back. anyone who loves the game this much can't just walk away from it forever.' And I was right. Both leagues, which are actually geographically close to one another are joining forces to create the Monmouth County Wiffleball Association. I'm expecting to see some amazing videos with some amazing plays and in depth coverage. It's not yet known if they'll only be playing July 4th or for the whole weekend but hopefully the video(s) will be worth the wait. I also don't know where they'll be playing...hopefully Lancaster Field. I'll keep you posted as more details arise.
