BURLINGTON, ON
The Guelph Royals chose to drop out of the playing schedule during the regular season in June – at that time they had not won just a single game.
Pitching just wasn’t what it needed to be.
There was no reason given for the abrupt decision to cease operations.
It was a team that at one point was the IBL Champions on nine occasions.
The InterCounty Baseball League (IBL) announced on Friday that they would hold a media event in Guelph on Monday during which they would confirm that new ownership has been found for the Guelph Royals and outline plans for the future direction for the team.
The IBL has worked with former team owner Jim Rooney in the search for new ownership. They appear to have succeeded.
