Welcome to the Ballfields at Craig Ranch in McKinney. Each team will be given two pool games and a 2 game guarantee bracket. The pool will not seed the bracket. Trophies will be awarded to 1st 2nd and 3rd place teams and individuals. USSSA rules and guidelines will be in affect for this tournament. The runs per 1/2 inning will be 5.
