After a successful albeit last minute round up, the reviews are in and there are calls for the AAI Softball Tournament to become an annual shin-dig.

Deb Booker, a prinicipal officer for the NT Department of Health said the Tournament was a huge success! 

“It is hoped that another tournament to be held in the near future and possibly an annual event,” she said.

“Without all of these guys and girls this event could NOT have happened. “

Central Desert Regional Council CEO Diane Hood was full of praise for the tournament.

“I would like to extend a big thank you to the Barkly Regional Council during the Tennant Creek Softball Tournament,” said Ms Hood.

“A quick thank you to you and your team for hosting the bush Softball Championships in conjunctions with NT Softball. 

“Our three teams really enjoyed the weekend and being up in Barkly.
