The NWCART was born out of the need for class “A” and junior American legion teams to have an opportunity to continue on playing after their regular season finished. Since there was no organized programs for this group of players to continue on their season was finished. The state chairmen from Washington (Gary George), Oregon (George McRay), and Idaho (Norbert Heitmann) at they’re annual baseball conference in Indianapolis discussed putting together a program where by their individual Class “A” and junior state champions could get together and have a round robin play-off. In 1984 these gentlemen extended an invitation to Montana (Wayne Davis) and his programs to join them in this tournament. At that time Montana, Oregon, & Washington sent their first and second place teams to the tournament. Idaho, because of its few number of Class “A” programs, only sent their first place team. then the state that was hosting the tournament got to include the host team.
