The AAABA Tournament hadn’t had one pitch thrown or a single crack of a bat. But Sunday, Aug. 1 still was a busy day for the Johnstown Oldtimers and the AAABA.

The official registration of the 16 teams in the 76th AAABA Tournament took place at the Holiday Inn Downtown Crown Ballroom.

A few hours after registration, teams, coaches, managers and tournament officials gathered at 1st Summit Arena @ Cambria County War Memorial for the players banquet and pairings ceremony.

The pool play pairings are determined using a “bingo cage” and numbered marble-type ball to determine which teams are in each pool in the upper and lower brackets. Once all teams are assigned a pool, the match ups unfold for the first three days of the event.

AAABA President Jay Elliot addressed the crowd and led the pairings ceremony.
