This
year, seven churches were involved in the league. Those seven
churches are Mt. Pulaski Christian Church, Lincoln Christian Church,
Jefferson Street Christian Church, Zion Lutheran Church, Prairie
Land Christian Church, Minier Christian Church, and United
Pentecostal Church. The games generally begin around the end of May
and the teams play through until the end of July (just before the
fair) with a double elimination tournament to end the season.
Jefferson Street Christian Church was this year’s champions with a
10-2 season and no losses during the tournament. 2nd
place went to Lincoln Christian Church and United Pentecostal took 3rd
place. All games are played out at Memorial Park by the Elks Country
Club and it is free of charge for the league thanks to the Lincoln
Park District. This is a co-ed slow-pitch league with an age
minimum rule of 14 years.
