Inaugural Licking County Invitational Completes First Edition With Strong Community Support and Clear Momentum for 2027

Newark, OH — The inaugural edition of the Licking County Invitational wrapped up after two full weekends of competitive recreational baseball at Mound City Little League, bringing together thirty four teams and hundreds of families for an event that blended high energy play with a meaningful cause.

The tournament opened with pool play on June sixth and seventh, followed by elimination rounds during Championship Weekend on June thirteenth and fourteenth. Each team played at least three games and top performers advanced through the bracket for a chance to earn custom championship rings. Across both weekends, a total of sixty four games were played, creating a lively and competitive atmosphere from start to finish.

One of the defining elements of the Invitational was its purpose. Entry at the gate operated on a suggested one dollar donation and the event raised three thousand eighty nine dollars for pediatric cancer research at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Families, coaches, and supporters contributed additional donations throughout the tournament, demonstrating strong community commitment to the cause.

The mission behind the tournament is rooted in the realities of pediatric cancer. One in two hundred sixty children will be diagnosed before age twenty. Forty seven children are diagnosed every day in the United States. There are more than one hundred twelve known pediatric cancer types. Historically, only four percent of federal cancer research funding has been directed toward pediatric cancers. Organizers emphasized that these numbers represent real families and real challenges, and that community driven events like the Invitational can help support research and treatment. As organizers noted throughout the weekend, you never know which dollar is the key to a cure.

The first edition of the tournament also brought together three participating leagues, strengthening connections across Licking County and reinforcing the event’s long term potential. With the inaugural year now complete, planning for Licking County Invitational II is already underway. Organizers aim to expand team participation, strengthen partnerships, and increase fundraising totals. The long term vision is to grow the Invitational into one of the region’s most impactful youth baseball events while continuing to support Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

Tournament officials expressed gratitude to the volunteers, coaches, families, and community members who helped make the first edition a success. The event demonstrated what can be accomplished when a community comes together with purpose and laid a strong foundation for continued growth in the years ahead.

And your Licking County Invitational 8U Silver Bracket champion is Druids and Runners-Up Rod and Sons! Great job everyone and we'll see you all next year!

We wrapped up the 8U gold bracket and crowned Roofiant Exteriors as champions with Bummies Reds as the runners up. Both teams played with heart and gave us a great finale.We pushed hard to get through the 8U silver bracket but the rain moved in before we could finish. That game will be completed at a later time and we will share the updated schedule once it is set.

Now for the part that truly shows the strength of this community. You all donated $846 yesterday which brings our grand total to $3,089. Every dollar goes straight to Nationwide Children’s Hospital for Pediatric Cancer Research. Thank you for showing up in such a big way and making this tournament about more than baseball.
