Final Update: Schedule is live!

Coaches, I want to thank all of you for sticking with us while we navigate the best options for this weekend’s tournament. Lost a # of teams that dropped late, but you’ll hung in there even though the #’s were small and we are grateful for that. Cancelling this event would have been the easy button, but that’s not how we do things. The record heat forecasted for this area is something we will all have to deal with, so we are making some adjustments to the event schedule. Here is the plan:

Friday night Opening Ceremonies Block party will be cancelled due to the excessive heat and lack of participation. Teams will be able to trade any pins or items Saturday morning. USFA home office has instructed all events in multiple states to cancel any non-essential activities like camps, clinics, etc.

Games will start Saturday morning: all teams will play 3 seeding games Saturday and our last round of games is done at the 3pm round (We think we can finish sooner, as we built some breaks in)

Keeping the 5-game format and there is no way to finish in 1 day without putting the girls into the heart of the heat. Double elimination brackets will start Sunday morning, and we expect to be done Sunday by lunch time

Entry Fee for Coach Pitch $250 (Winner in coach pitch will get a $1000 USFA Event Credit!)

Entry fee for All-Star & Kid Pitch $125 (Winner of each division will get $500 USFA Event Credit)

Awards: Winners of each Division will get a team award, championship rings, and a USFA pin

2^nd and 3^rd place teams will get USFA Finalist Rings

Each player will get a complimentary Italian Ice as a gift from the USFA staff. Coaches will need to come check in at Shadow Creek Sports Complex under the pavilion to get the tickets for their players to use to get their free Italian Ice. Coaches will also get your 3 coaches wrist bands at check-in under the pavilion

USFA has also worked with the City of Pearland to have extra safety measures in place for this event. Pearland PD will have officers on site to ensure we have real time help if anything heat or safety related happens. They have also helped us secured Memorial Herman Hospital to have a heath and safety station set up both Saturday and Sunday as extra safety for our players and spectators.  

We understand that some could say we are being a bit extra here, but we care about our players, coaches, and their families so doing the extras on a tough weekend like this will help everyone. Our USFA team knows you’ll as coaches are under a lot of pressure on weekends like this, so we also are going the extra mile for you too.

Thanks again for the support!
