The Tigers from Portland join the league
Michael "the Babe" Vitellaro has contacted me to join the Southern Division with his team, the Tigers. I first found Michael on the Wiffleball Network which is a great website for people who truly love wiffle. With the Tigers and the Rose City Wifflers both signing up for next season, the Southern Division is looking to get even stronger.
The Wiffleball Furies are back!
Tyler Johnson contacted me today to let me know that the Wiffleball Furies will be playing again next season under the new nickname the Cubs. With the Cubs joining that makes seven teams total in the North. The level of competition should be top notch next season.

Preparation for season 3 already underway.
With over five months until the CCWA's third season starts but we are already trying to get things lined up for next season. We are planning on expanding the league and changing team names, changing up some rules to make it more competitive and completely remodeling Jones field in Kelso.
With expanding the league we are hoping to almost double in size with eighteen teams total. Those teams would be split 9-9 North/South. In each league there would be three divisions and the winner of each division along with a wild card winner would go to the playoffs. As for the name change, we have decided to go with MLB team nicknames. Here is how each division is shaping up in the early stages.
North:
Lexington Brewers, Jim Hewey and company are back again for another shot at the title
Jackmove Giants, Matt Jones is looking to lead his team back into contention
Rose Valley Red Sox, ex-Pirate Tony Liepa is starting a team with his brother that could win some games
Kelso Mariners, ex-Jackmove player Reggie Williamson is back this season with his own team
Quiznos Indians, team captain Avish Bhalani has already said that Quiznos will be playing in season three
Longview ?, Matt Bailey has verbally comitted to the CCWA for next season bringing with him a team of softball players
South:
Vancouver Yankees (formerly Penguins), player of the year Josh Burckhardt is taking over for this team and changing the team name to the Yankees since in his words "they are the first franchise of the CCWA"
Laurelhurst Pirates, Nate Bullock is bringing his team back once again to compete
Woodstock Unicorns, Blair Whiteman has said he will be back but they are undecided on a nickname at this point
Couch St. Wizards, Dan Hurley is going to be bringing some form of this team back for next season
Rose City Wifflers, Walt B has gotten a hold of me and said that he and the Rose City Wifflers would be delighted to come show us how to play wiffle
