Travelling Chanclas (UK)

"We are a collection of players from all over the UK, who recently came together to compete in the 49th Heavy Hitters for the first time to form the Travelling Chanclas! Our first outing was filled with laughter, chants of JaJa Ding Dong and overall amazing experiences. We loved the competition & atmosphere so much we just had to slip into our chanclas one more time and do it all over again! We can't wait to see what the 50th anniversary has in store for us and are eager to see you all again!"

This will be our first year in the Prague tournament, and we are looking forward to a fun weekend away from the U.K, to bond with the team and play some fun softball....and of course drink Czech beer and eat cake!
Burderop Bombers (UK)
captain Josh
Burderop Bombers originally formed as an after work softball team, but became a tournament team over time as we became friends and started to play and train more. Our aim is to enjoy the game and have a good time, if we win its a great bonus. As our league has grown we now all play in different league teams and really enjoy the chance to come back together for weekends. We started tournaments a few years ago and got hooked on having a good time. Orange rules!!

Sultans of Šłing (Europe/Poland/CZ/DE)
captain Tony Clarey
"It all started in the summer of 2002.
George W. Bush was coming to visit Poland after the September 11th attacks. Larry Salmon, the head of security at the embassy, had to entertain the Secret Service agents preparing the president's visit. Larry asked us expats with whom he usually played basketball about doing a pickup softball game. We discovered that among us we had some talent. Larry mentioned that we should think about entering a team in a fall tournament in Prague. We entered the tournament and won it. After that, we entered and played for years. We won some, we were runners up in others. After a change in generations, we are still playing. We love Prague, the fields, the tournaments, the charities and all of you who play with us.
