WAIST is the West Africa Invitational Softball Tournament, and this year marks its 35th year. Dakar was host to 28 teams from around West Africa, including four teams from Dakar Academy. The DA teams all did very well, and Jacob and Dave each got some good playing time and a bit of a sunburn.

The international flavor was evident this year with three Senegalese teams, as well as teams from Mauritania, Guinea, Mali, and Gambia.
