Background behind the name of this tournament - Janet Madden, she has been one of our assistants when it comes to checking teams in, making phone calls to coaches about rain delays/game time changes, taking care of our umpires, and basically just helping out wherever she can. Over the last 2 years she has been battling some health issues. Dave and I thought it was the right thing to do to name this tournament after Janet Madden because of her dedication, devotion, hard work, and hours spent helping our tournaments and Carter Park over the last 16 years. Our goal is to have her be at each awards ceremony at this tournament and help pass out our Championship and Runner-Up awards. 

In 2025 Carter Park will feature a brand new restroom facility at both their North and South complexes!
