The island of Tinian is announcing open tryouts for their Tinian all-star baseball team, the Tinian Monarchs . The team will be sponsored by the Tinian Mayor’s Office in an effort to encourage CNMI-wide competition between islands in all sporting events.<\/p>\n
“I wanted to encourage CNMI wide competition between islands in sports by sponsoring Tinian’s first men’s All-Star baseball team. This team will be responsible for representing Tinian in future goodwill baseball events with Saipan, Guam and Japan. The sponsoring of this team will encourage inter-island commerce and establish goodwill with other islands and other countries such as Japan. I look forward to our Tinian Monarchs representing Tinian proudly. I know this team will bring our entire island great publicity of our culture and our friendliness,” said Mayor Francisco Borja said.<\/p>\n
All interested and experienced baseball players are asked to show up to practice at the Tinian Baseball Field Complex Monday through Friday 5:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. Players will be judged on skill, experience and attitude. The Tinian Monarchs roster will be limited to only 20 players.<\/p>\n
