\"vegas<\/a>The ninth edition of the \u201cLas Vegas Road Trip\u201d men\u2019s fast pitch tournament dates has been confirmed. The event will be held April 8-10, 2016<\/strong>. As like last year, first round games will start on Friday at noon and the Championship games will be scheduled for 3:00 PM on Sunday, with “IF” games immediately following if necessary. Teams flying in and out should make plans to be ready to play early on Friday and late times on Sunday in the event the brackets are running late. Last year we had 33 teams competing and games started at noon on Friday and made things very smooth for players throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n

While this tournament is a NAFA sanctioned event, it is run by the SCIFL and any questions regarding this tournament must go through the SCIFL Tournament Director Jesse Ortiz.
\n
\nTeams will be separated in the following divisions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A
\nA-Major (depending on amount of teams)
\nAA\/AA-Major (depending on the amount of teams)<\/p>\n

The split in the higher classifications will be based on the amount of teams that enter. The NAFA pitcher\u2019s list will be used to monitor pitchers in the tournament as well as the team\u2019s current classification. No open class pitchers are allowed to pitch in this tournament. Confirmation into the tournament will be based on the entry fee and roster being received. The classification list posted on the NAFA web site on January 31, 2016 will be the list that is used to classify pitchers. There will be no appeals for pitchers after that date for this tournament.<\/p>\n

The entry fee for the tournament is $420<\/strong> and the NAFA 3-game guarantee bracket will be used for all divisions. It is open to all fast pitch teams and it is your responsibility to pay your State Director the NAFA Team Registration fee. With a minimum of eight (8) teams in a division, the winner will have their 2016 NAFA World Series entry fee paid for the division they played in. Also, to help keep tournament costs down, if your team books at least five (5) rooms and stays at our host hotel on Friday and Saturday nights you will receive $25 back on your entry fee.<\/p>\n

Teams interested in participating should contact Jesse Ortiz by email, as soon as possible, at scifastpitch@gmail.com or by cell at 661-510-8928 and inform him if your team can play all three days. Teams that can play all three days will be placed on the priority list, teams that say they can only play on Saturday and Sunday will be placed on the secondary list. No one will be given a “selected” game time as everyone is traveling to the event.<\/p>\n

Entry fees will start to be collected on January 2, 2016 and once it\u2019s received you will be sent an email to confirm your entry. Once the tournament is full, teams providing their entry fee will be placed on a waiting list and entered if any teams drop out. All teams will need to submit their entry fee along with their team\u2019s roster listing all their players and identifying their pitchers to ensure teams are placed in their proper classification.
