BAT FOR THE BERRY'S AT THE
ANNUAL UK TEXAS EXES SOFTBALL TOURNEY

Benefiting the Joshua & Robin Berry Children's Trust

Good day out to have some fun, enjoy some sunny weather and raise money for a great cause!  Feel free to play or just come along and cheer on the others.  Teams will be organised based on common interests or organisations.  If you have specific team requests, please let us know, and we will do our best to accommodate.  We'll do a round robin of some sort, so expect to have about 3 games. Bats, gloves etc will be provided!  This year we will donate all money raised to the Joshua & Robin Berry Children's Trust.  Joshua, who attended UT and his wife Robin, who attended Tulane, were killed in a car accident on July 2nd driving home from a family vacation in Colorado.  Their 3 children survived, but the two older boys - Peter, age 9 and Aaron, age 8, are now paralyzed from the waist down.  The youngest, daughter Willa, age 6, is ok with a few broken bones.  These kids have a long road ahead to recovery.  Let's do our part by going to Bat for the Berry's.  We will collect additional donations on the day.  We will also have baked goods for sale, so come join us for food and fun! 

LOCATION : Regents Park  - softball pitches 8 & 9. The fields are near The Hub, the cafe in the middle of the cricket pitches at the north end of the park. Nearest tubes are Baker Street, Regents Park, and Camden Town. Please see the website for a map of the park and field locations HERE
