Come join us for some fun and lots of softball over the weekend June 29 - July 1. And it will be at one of the nicest complexes in the state of Michigan. We will have 12u,14u,16, and 18u divisions, and all teams will be guaranteed games for $495 (12u is $445). As with all Fastpitch Showdowns, the pool play games will be 90 minutes long so you get a realistic chance to finish the game or at least get the feel for a full game. And with each team getting a minimum of 5 games, there will be plenty of enjoyable softball going on. Each team will play 4 games of pool play on Friday and Saturday and depending on how your team did in pool play, each team will be seeded into either the "A" or "B" single elimination tournament on Sunday...............................................................
Also this year we will host a PLAYER DEVELOPMENT AND RECRUITING CLINIC taught entirely by college coaches on the Thursday before the tournament. This has been very successful in the past for those girls thinking about possibly playing in college, and further information is on our website - www.fastpitchshowdowns.com.....................................................................................
And this year we will continue the International Challenge Cup -- just for fun. Because of the number of Canadian teams we traditionally host at the tournament, we have a " United States Vs Canada " factor to the tournament. Every time a Canadian team plays a U.S. team in pool play, we will award one point to the winner. At the end of pool play we will add up the number of points for each country, and the country that has the most number of points will be declared that year's winner. We will have a large trophy that will have the winning country engraved on it, and will keep it at the restaurant until the following year. This isn't anything formal and the competitions will be random, but it's something we hope adds a little bit of fun and excitement to the tournament for the girls. Canada won the Cup in 2015, but the USA rebounded in 2016 and won the Cup. But Canada re-grouped and took the Cup again in 2017 ! The word is that USA is looking for revenge in 2018 !..................................................
Although this tournament is not oriented specifically towards college recruiting, because of the number of teams and the mix of teams that participate in the tournament, college coaches always attend. The exact number of college coaches will depend on how many players in the tournament contact college coaches of the schools they are interested in and invite them to come watch their team play. At the college coaches' request, this year we are going to compile a player profile book for the college coaches in attendance. Although it is not a requirement of the tournament, we certainly encourage all players who are possibly interested in playing in college to submit this form. Because the college coaches want the most current information available, this for will be posted on June 1st. There is not cost to be listed in the book. The form takes about 2 minutes to fill out and may be completed by individual players, coaches or managers...................................
If you are not currently a member of ASA, you can simply join at the tournament in about 3 minutes for $20, and it is good at all ASA tournaments for the rest of the season........................
This is our 9th year doing this and we always enjoy working with Ann-Marie, Doug, and everyone else at the Canton Sports complex. So we invite you to come out and enjoy the weekend with some good competitive softball. Further information on the tournament is available on our website -- www.fastpitchshowdowns.com |
