2021 PAPA HOPS SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT INFORMATION

ALL FIRST ROUND GAMES WILL START AT 5 PM.

Batting Practice will be allowed ONLY BEFORE THE FIRST ROUND GAMES.

Each team must hand in ENTRY FEE, ROSTER, AND A WAIVER for every player on the roster BY FRIDAY JULY 1st. This is to help make it easier on the people running the tournament the day of and to make sure all participants are safe to play.

In order to make sure this tournament runs smoothly we need everyone to be on time and start their games on time. I know it can be hard to make some of the 5PM games with it being on a Friday but you should know right now and plan ahead to be able to be at Kennedy/Mt. Greenwood/Beverly by 4:30PM for a 5PM game start. If you know a guy on your team won’t be there, then make sure to add extra people on your roster to fill in for him until they get there. We will be strict this year with forfeits if you are not there on time because we have a lot of games we have to fit in a small time.

CAPTAINS BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR GUYS GETTING THERE ON TIME.

Due to the number of teams and the time restriction of this tournament, we will play some games in the first two rounds at Mt. Greenwood Park and Beverly Park. It is a random draw on who plays where so please understand that we have no say in where in you play first.

Only 2 Major Players allowed on each team. Please understand this is a charity tournament and we want to make it fun for everyone. If a team is making this an issue, or trying to bend the rules, a wait list team will replace them.

The drawing will be on Wednesday July 6th, 2021 in the upstairs of McNallys @ 8 pm. EVERY TEAM MUST HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE THERE AND ALL ENTRY MATERIALS MUST HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED BY JULY 5TH OR YOU WILL BE REPLACED BY WAIT LIST TEAMS.

PLEASE KNOW AGAIN THIS YEAR EVERYTHING IS ON STRICT TIME CONSTRAINTS. THE LAST FEW YEARS HAVE WORKED OUT REAL WELL AND WE WANT TO KEEP IT THAT WAY! THE CAPTAINS AND TEAMS HELP MAKE THIS A SPECIAL NIGHT. PLEASE HELP US KEEP EVERYTHING RUNNING ON TIME.

Pack your coolers, bring you lawn chairs, your family, and friends for a fun filled night at Kennedy Park. Their will be music, raffles, and a night of great softball under the lights!
