A team of local slopitch players brought home bronze medals at the end of August from the Canadian 55+ Championships held in Brockville Ontario.
The Turner Valley Braves qualified to represent Alberta Zone 2 in the games by winning the silver medal last summer in Airdrie. After placing second in their pool of 5, the Braves played against the winner of the other pool, St. Albert, who won the match. The Braves then played in the bronze medal match and were able to hold off the team from Saskatchewan, winning an exciting defensive battle 2-1. The Braves played a total of 6 games over 3 days with only a 10 member team-a great team with a lot of heart and determination.
