Guilford, Conn., -  The East Coast Elite League (ECEL) is proud to announce a partnership with Bertucci’s Italian Restaurant for this upcoming season. 

Bertucci’s, which is a part of the Earl Enterprises Corporation, will provide food, including pre and post-game meals, to all of our athletes in the league this season.

“This is a great partnership for our league,” said ECEL Commissioner Peter Alden. “Food is very critical to our athlete's success and having the right food in your body allows you to take your game to the next level. That is what we feel this partnership can do for our players."

With this new partnership, they will become our main sponsor and be our lead sponsor for the All-Star weekend in January. All players, parents, fans, and scouts that watch our games will receive a voucher for a meal at a nearby Bertucci's location.

The Fall Classic, which takes place in three weeks, will take place near five locations in the Boston area (Hingham, Boston, Braintree, Cambridge, and Chestnut Hill). If you say you are with the ECEL, you will receive a discount for your meal.
