The Miramar Canes won the Grand Slam World Series Championship at Panama City Beach, FL, going 7-0-1 to win the 13U title. 
 
After tying the Powder Springs Seminoles GA 3-3 in a rematch game of last year's Elite Eight teams at Cooperstown Dreams Park, the Canes ran the table, staying in the winner bracket in the double-elimination 32-team Grand Slam tournament with 7 straight wins, including an 11-9 slugfest victory over Knights Baseball of Mississippi in the championship game. 
 
The Canes defeated the vaunted Knights twice including a quarterfinal come-from-behind 10-7 win.  The Knights had been winners of their last 14 straight games in USSSA tournament play, four straight tournaments and came into Panama City Beach ranked #1 in Mississippi.
 
The Panama City Beach World Series tournament hosted by Grand Slam Sports, featured teams from 17 states... a kick-off beach party hosted by the team under the fireworks on July 4th made for a terrific start of the week for the Canes and the week ended with a celebratory victory pool party right after the championship game on July 11th.
