Andy Polanski Classic 2022
APCF was ecstatic to bring back the AP Classic for 2022! After a 2 year hiatus due to COVID, the tournament came out swinging with fun and excitement!
Naming this year's tournament as the
AP Classic "Come Back Tour"
seemed to fit nicely!
The weather was beautiful and it was once again amazing to be out with all of you playing ball, enjoying the beer gardens , small silent auction and seeing all the footprints in the sand at Andy's Playground.
We really wouldn't be here without all of you.
Thank you to all of our generous sponsors this year, and in year's past. We are so thankful to be apart of a remarkable community like this one!
