This weekend - July 24-26 - is for teams at 14u only. The older age groups 16u, 18u,18+ play their World Series the preceding weekend - July 17-19 - and the 8u, 10u, 12u play their World Series the following weekend July 31-August 2. We did this because the 14u age group was our largest age group in the Younger World Series and the tournament always sold out in January. So by doing this we hope to have well over 100 teams at 14u and make it that much more enjoyable for more girls. Are you tired of wondering all summer if you'll earn a World Series bid or if you know the right people? And then if you get a bid, you have to pay an exorbitant fee to enter (or an exorbitant admission charge) for a minimum number of games and play 1 game a day for 3 days while those hotel bills mount up? Well, so was I. We use a format where each team will play a minimum of 5 games in 3 days. And you don't have to worry about qualifying as the only condition is that you finish in the top 6 of any tournament you were in this year or last year (ie - no rec. teams). This way everyone - players, coaches, parents, and fans - can make definite plans in advance. Also, no admission fee is charged to your fans..... (the city of Columbus does collect a $5 per day parking fee.) We will have the same amenities you'd expect at a World Series - 1. Opening ceremonies 2. Parade of teams 3. Skills competitions-- e.g. home run Derby, fastest pitcher, fastest touch them all, around the horn, outfield accuracy, etc. 4. Most Valuable Team awards 5. Team Spirit awards on YouTube 6. Gift swap 7. Pin trading 8. Programs. And to top it off we have an in-house fundraising opportunity for those teams who wish to take advantage of it to raise money for this extra special tournament.********* New addition as of 12/15/14 ************** Fastpitch Showdowns is happy to host a 2015 MLB Pitch, Hit & Run Competition for the girls at the 14u All Sanctioned World Series in Columbus Ohio July 24 - 26, 2015. The competitions will be held on Saturday, July 25 from 12 noon to 5 PM. Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run is intended to encourage youth participation and emphasize the "FUN" element of baseball/softball. Since there is NO registration fee, everyone has the opportunity to participate. Since the competitions for 2015 will be over, these competitions possibly could qualify you for the 2016 events ( this has to be finalized by Major League Baseball which should do so by the 2015 event ). Further information and sign-up opportunities will be available on our website starting March 1, 2015. All this is available for $510 for a 5 game guarantee. The preliminary information is on our website -- www.fastpitchshowdowns.com, -- but certainly if you have any specific questions, feel free to let us know. Last year we had teams from 11 different states as well as Canada, at one complex, and we hope to do the same this year. So we invite all teams to come and face different teams from different sanctioning bodies, and have the girls enjoy a fun end of the season tournament, or a perfect preliminary for another World Series.
