This year's championship will be played at the same site on March 15.

The official championship was played for the first time in 2003/04.

This is the first time a major championship has been played in Alabama.

The championship was played to 200 balls, instead of the standard 150.

In 2009, the championship had been played with a knock out group stage followed by a final.

Before the 2006 edition the championship was played by under-19 teams.

In the 2002 edition the championship was played by under-21 teams.

The championships were played independently from the national league at the time.

The 2010 championship was played on a round robin league system.

During the 1980s, (and again in 2003), the championship has been played on many shorter games.
