The Finkstonball scheduled was released and presented to the teams a few days ago. Finkstonball will kick of with both, Fastpitch and Baseball by Friday Night with a total of 3 games. All other highlights such as the Welcome Ceremony, semifinales, Baseball Home Run Derby and the final games haven´t changed since the last edition.

Friday Night games at Finkstonball will be presented by MUSCO Lighting. The world leading manufacturer for Baseball & Softball Lighting will also be present at Finkstonball with an Info-Point about their current LED lighting system Total Light Control – TLC for LED™ which has also been used in upgrading the Athletics Ballpark. MUSCO is the official Partner of Little League. Further MUSCO’s system is also used at various prestigious stadiums across other sports such as Manchester United’s Old Trafford.

MUSCO also provided lights for MLB’s “Field of Dreams Project”. Knowing that Musco lit the original Field of Dreams movie over 30 years ago, and having trusted Musco to illuminate several Major League stadiums since then, MLB turned to Musco to provide lighting for its first-ever ballgame in the state of Iowa.

Since 1976, Musco Lighting has specialized in the design and manufacture of sports and large-area lighting with innovations in glare reduction and light control responsible to the needs of facility owners, users, neighbors, and the night sky. Musco has been the trusted lighting manufacturer of more than one hundred professional stadiums and venues and thousands of recreational facilities all over the world each year.
