All USSSA Tournaments will be separated into A/AA and AAA/Major divisions (and we will crown 2 champions in each age group) as soon as the number of teams in each division warrants us to split them (exactly like we’ve done to many of our weekends in the past)

HOTEL INFORMATION: All tournament teams playing at Lenz Field & Sports Complex that require hotel stay are required to reserve their rooms through “All Sport Accommodations.” Teams that do not reserve their rooms with ASA will not get scheduled to play in our tournaments.
