Softball World Series Coming To Lower Shore

OCEAN CITY – The bases are aligned for the largest girls’ softball tournament in the country to come to the Wicomico/Worcester County region, and the Town of Ocean City approved a final measure this week -- the USSSA World Series Opening Ceremony.

The USSSA World Series Opening Ceremony will be held on July 29 on the beach on the south side of the pier. The series will take place throughout three weeks, from July 17-Aug. 3.

The partnership between Wicomico and Worcester counties to host the event came forward in February and was presented by Ocean City’s Tourism Advisory Board (TAB).

Wicomico County Director of Recreation, Parks and Tourism Gary Mackes came before the Ocean City Mayor and Council explaining the USSSA intends to hold its Girls World Series in the Wicomico/Worcester County region for its seventh consecutive year in 2013.
