The rule: a team with a deep history gets its OWN page; the Sports section keeps the survey. A program earns a page of its own when it has a founding story, a grounds story, a champions roll long enough to argue over, and a hall of fame of its own — when, in short, its history is a town history and not a season summary.
By that test the qualifying institution in New Carlisle is the Wiffle Ball championship complex founded by Koby Keck in 2005: the Hometown Days tournament whose first champions were the Late Arrivers; Migley Field, built in 2006 in a residential backyard and home of the Hometown Cup Finals ever since; the ORWBL league founded in January 2007 by Jared Emmons and Keck, whose New Carlisle Newts played their first league game on 3 June 2007; Brandon Hora Field, dedicated 28 July 2012; the complex named the Wiffle Kingdom in 2025; a record 96 teams in the 2024 Championship; the twenty-first annual playing in 2025; and the New Carlisle Wiffle Ball Hall of Fame, established in 2020 with an inaugural class of fifteen.
That founding, the format's evolution, the grounds and the present course are banked whole in the Sports section's article nc-wiffle, which covers audit items 2, 3, 4 and 9 for this institution; this section does not re-tell them.
