The 11 and Under Hays Cardinals will host their first Home Run Derby at Bickle-Schmidt Sports Complex on Saturday in conjunction with the Hays Baseball Association youth baseball tournament.

Eagle Communications is sponsoring the event, which will run from 10 a.m. until approximately 7:30 p.m.

Participants in several age brackets can hit 10 balls for $5 toward shortened fences. Prizes will be awarded to the top finisher in each age bracket. Hitters will need to provide their own pitchers for the contest.

Proceeds of the event will benefit the 11U Hays Cardinals upcoming season.
