Help the Mudcats...and Help Yourself!


Consider helping out the Mudcats through one of two great fundraising opportunities:

1) Our annual Super Bowl pool - Entries are $10 apiece and four winners will be selected based on the game score at the end of each quarter.

2) This year we have an exciting new opportunity in conjunction with our friends at Foutch's Strike Zone. Tickets are being sold (also $10 apiece) for a raffle that will include some AMAZING prizes!
  • Grand prize will be a Spring Training VIP Fantasy Trip. The winner and a guest will attend Tigers spring training in Lakeland, Florida February 25-28. Airfare and lodging will be included as will tickets to the annual Tiger BBQ, the 20th annual Major League Golf Scramble and Dinner, and a Tiger Town VIP Experience!
 Other prizes include:
  • Tigers jerseys autographed by Miguel Cabrera, Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker
  • A bat autographed by Hall of Famer Al Kaline
  • A chance to take batting practice at Comerica Park
  • Tickets to see the Tigers play
The raffle drawing will be February 7th at Foutch's and you need not be present to win.
To take part in either fundraiser, simply contact your favorite player on the 16u Michigan Mudcats team.

Luke's Legacy Baseball Classic (Preview)

The 2015 Michigan Mudcats (15u) season begins Wednesday, June 3rd with a very special event. The season-opening doubleheader with the Grand Blanc Gladiators has been dubbed the Luke's Legacy Baseball Classic, in an effort to raise awareness of the Luke Duncanson Legacy Memorial Foundation.

The Gladiators and the Mudcats are both Grand Blanc teams, so almost all of the players competing were Luke's friends, classmates and former teammates. Joe Pitock Field on the campus of Grand Blanc High School will host the event. Make sure to arrive early for some very special pre-game ceremonies beginning around 5:20 with first pitch scheduled for 5:30.

For more information, email MichiganMudcats@hotmail.com.
