This  past week was a bit of a blur.  From Amsterdam to Munich to Regensburg.   With the teams starting to arrive tomorrow for the WBC qualifier in Germany,  I am sure they will be  excited about the field upgrades and temporary facilities built for the event.    Great Britain> Canada arrive tomorrow and  the Czech and Germany clubs bus in for the event.     All the teams are posting some big names MiLB names on the roster.    The  big chatter in European baseball is that the EURO baseball Championships just ended in Rotterdam and Italy came in 1st after a “unique” play off system  beating Nederlands.  Its pretty typical to see these two clubs be in 1 & 2 slots.  Spain was right up their too. Great Britain and Czech  fared well but they didn’t have the pro guys that  they will have for this event.

Anyway mounds, bullpens and infield have been worked on this past week.    John Deere provided us with a nice mower to showcase.   Our friends at Diamond Pro and BullDog Pitching rubbers sent over some products to jazz up Armin Wolfe stadium.     We even   scavenged a Covermaster tarp from the 2004 Athens Olympics that was still in storage for the games since Regensburg did not have one.   Pretty cool but it has no leaks after sitting for 8 years on a pallet.  Our volunteer Regensburg U18 team helped spread some product today.  What a great group of kids.
