A big weekend of youth baseball is coming to Chattooga County as the “Battle at the Bighorn” All-Star Rec Tournament takes place May 29th and 30th at the Summerville Recreation Center.

The event, formerly known as “Rumble by the River,” will feature recreation league teams only, with no select teams allowed. Age divisions include 6U co-ed along with 8U, 10U, and 12U boys baseball.

Games will be played at the Summerville Rec Center on Highway 100, with a three-game guarantee for participating teams. The entry fee is set at $75 per team, and GRPA rules will apply throughout the tournament.
