UPCOMING
TOURNEYS
We realize most
NABA players have put away the equipment for the year, but now is
the time to start thinking about the 2011 tournament
season.
First up on the 2011 tournament
calendar are the California Kickoff Classic and
the Boricua Caribbean Classic.
Both tournaments are wood-bat events that will be played during the
Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Weekend from January
15-17. The California Kickoff will be played in the
greater Los Angeles area, while the Boricua heads to exotic Puerto
Rico.
To reserve a spot in either
tournament, a $350 deposit must be received by January 6. No teams
will be accepted after January 7. To register, click on the
tournament links above or call the NABA National Office at (800)
621-6479.
If you would like to be a pool
player for either tournament, or any NABA tournament in 2011, go to
the Sign Up and Play link at
dugout.org.

NEW TOURNAMENT PRICING
Most important, the NABA has changed its tournament pricing
structure for 2011. Tournament team fees now will be determined by
how many players a team has on its roster. The change was made to
help teams budget more efficiently with regard to tournament
registration. The new pricing structure follows*:
Team
Fee: $1,295.00 (Teams with 12 players or
less)
Team Fee: $1,495.00 (Teams with 13 to 17
players)
Team Fee: $1,795.00 (Teams with 18 to 25
players)
*Some tournaments might vary slightly. Please be sure to check the
individual tournament page for details.
The pricing structure for the Phoenix and Florida World
Championship Series will be released later.
