Welcome to the Midwest All Sanctioned World Series! July 23, 24 and 25, 2010 Open to all sanctioned teams - ASA, NSA, USSSA, PONY, TRIPLE CROWN, NAFA, AAU, AFA, USFA, or any other recogonized sanctioning body. Open to sanctioned teams in the following mid-western states - OH, MI, IN, PA, KY, WV, MO, IL, IA, NY, WI & CANADA.
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 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 (ie - no rec. teams) Also, no admission fee is charged to your fans..... (the city of Columbus does collect a $5 parking fee.)
We will have the same amenities you'd expect at a World Series -
- Parade of Teams -- all teams are invited to come in uniform and be introduce over the PA system -- More info coming soon
- Pin Trading -- More info coming soon
- Skills Competition - (Home Run Derby, Fastest Base Runner, Outfield Accuracy, "Round the Horn, Fastest Pitch) -- More info coming soon
- Kareoke during Opening Ceremonies
- Gift Swaps - a World Series tradition, each team is encouraged to bring a souvenier(s) from their local area or home town to present to the individual player on the other team before the start of their first game.
- Games - other skill games will be available for the girls to participate in between games (ex. dunk tank, speed pitch, climbing wall)
- Scholarships - 5 - $100 random scholarships will be awarded to one of the participating players on an 18 and under team
- College Coaches - over 200 Midwestern college coaches from all divisions will be invited to attend
- Souvenir Program - There will be a program for the World Series and all teams are invited to send their team picture and have it put in the program at no cost. In addition, Good Luck Ads will be available to parents and fans at a nominal fee. (Ad order form to be posted by January 1, 2010)
- MVT award -- An Most Valuable Team award will be given to one team based on academic, athletic, and civic involvement in each age group. (Application to be posted January 1, 2010)
