Mayor's Cup Tournament
Mayor's Cup Tourney Approaching PNC
Brighton Heights is hosting one half of the City of Pittsburgh Mayor's Cup Tournament July 19-25, which draws little league teams from all around the city. The other half is being hosted by 14th Ward. The winners of each division will meet in the championship at PNC Park on July 31. In fact, the tournament is titled "The Road to PNC Park."

This single-elimination tournament for ages 11 and 12 is managed by City BIG League. As host, BHAA is responsible for field preparations and concessions. The city provides umpires and game monitors. Our organization is represented by the Cubs and Yankees, whose rosters are filled out with players from the Padres.

The Mayor's Cup is different from other little league tournaments in that is it not an all-star event. Teams are to play with their regular season rosters up to 13 players. If a team does not have 13 players available, City BIG League randomly assigns additional players from another team. In this case, the Cubs and Yankees had only 10 players each available for the tournament. They have been assigned additional players from the Padres roster.
