Dear supporters,

Since 1999, "Circle Laligurans" have been introduced funs of baseball to children in Nepal. This activity which was begun with the word "This is a ball", by continuing communication with Nepali children, now we can hear the words "Baseball is so fun", "I want play more well", "I want to be a professional player in the future". The funs of baseball gradually known by Nepali children, the number of players also gradually increased. For example, we made baseball teams, held baseball tournament, our activity in Nepal spread step by step. As one of the activities, continued to last year, we got a chance to Mr. Isowr Thapa, the ace pitcher in Nepal, come to Japan and challenge to tryouts for independent leagues.

Now, since January 14 to 17, at Lahore, Pakistan, South Asia baseball tournament will be held. In this time, Pakistan Federation of Baseball invited Nepal to participate in this tournament. We hoped to make a step to the international stage, then we decided to plan that with taking the lead by Mr. Isowr Thapa, organize the representative team of Nepal and participate in this tournament. Five countries: Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal will participate in this tournament. With cooperating "ESODEC", a Nepali NGO, or other relevant people, "Circle Laligurans" is preparing to participate in this "international tournament" which is also the desire at the beginning of our activity. We still have many difficulties to overcome, but we are making efforts as much as possible.

However, we are just a volunteer group, and our financial situation is so hard. About participation of this time, it is also very hard to pay the cost for visiting Pakistan, preparing uniforms, etc. Therefore we decided to request contributions for participation in "South Asia Baseball Championship 2011". We hope your understanding and cooperation.

We widely require cooperation of individuals, enterprises and organizations as follows. Every member of "Circle Laligurans" truly wish as many ones as possible will support our desire, the Nepal's first participation in international tournament. We send you our best regards.

Sincerely,
