Welcome to the 12th ANNUAL Mason Invitational Tournament

Welcome to the 12th Annual Mason Invitational Tournament, or MIT for short. Gary Mason loved coaching little league. We can still see his face light up when he was teaching certain aspects of the game. In 1992, Gary achieved his greatest coaching accomplishment when his 12-year-old All-Star team won the District 18 title for Manchester Little League. Gary was always looking to make sure the kids of all ability levels played as much baseball as possible.

The MIT allows additional Little League players throughout NJ to experience All-Star competition. Year in & year out, many players do not make the District All-Star teams who are very capable but get caught up in a numbers crunch in most leagues. This tournament allows these players to play in something meaningful.

Mr. Gary Mason knew all aspects of little league. He coached for 23 years. He enjoyed working with and teaching kids. He was a board member and Vice President for many years, served as League president for one year. He was heavily involved in the running of his town’s league and helping other board members learn the ropes. He also served a role with District 18 for numerous years imparting his knowledge on many other leagues. His influence extends past the borders of Manchester and beyond the kids, to many grown-ups. Because of Gary, many of us have gained the knowledge and confidence to be able to serve Manchester Little League as a coach, volunteer, and friend.
