To all teams, players, parents, and fans.

Pope Francis will be in Philadelphia Pa. during this weekend's tournament. As our attempt to have him make an appearance at Diamond Nation fell through, we just want to provide some preventative traffic information.

As we are all aware of the fact that people will be traveling all over the Northeast to see Pope Francis live, we would like for you to plan your travel accordingly to ensure the tournament does not have any delays due to highway backups.

Most teams that commute use many of the same roads that will be used for visitors going to Philadelphia during the weekend.

Thank you for taking the time to plan your trip to Diamond Nation accordingly.
