Organiser's Description
Alll proceeds of this wiffle ball tournament will go toward Parechovirus research.
The goal of Research for Ronan is to raise awareness of Parechovirus, a relatively unknown virus which has been causing severe illness in infants all over the world. Our son Ronan was unable to overcome the virus and lost his battle at 34 days old.
The goal is to educate the public and health professionals alike, and work toward raising funds for research to develop treatments. When Ronan was diagnosed with Parechovirus, the virus was considered to be rare, but to consider a virus to be “rare” when it is not routinely tested for is inaccurate and misleading.
There will be a tournament bracket posted one week before June 22nd. Each team is to register with 4 or 5 players in total. Everyone can bat in the line up but there will only be 4 players allowed on the field. Tournament game rules will be posted at game site.
