Dear Coach,
The committee for the Southern California International Softball Festival and Southern California ASA are pleased to invite you to attend the 2011 Champions Cup. This premier International and Junior Olympic event is scheduled for July 7-11, 2011 (16U) and July 13-17, 2011 (18Gold/18U) and continue to be located in Irvine, California. The proceeds from this event will be used to make direct awards to athletes requiring and deserving of financial assistance in the continuation of their college educations to the college they will be attending as a freshman.
We will have in attendance the finest Junior Olympic teams in the nation competing for the tournament championship. We have 48 (16U) and 96 (18 Gold/18U) registered teams in the Junior Olympic Showcases, most of them are preparing for their National Championship tournaments in August, 2011.
Our goal is to do all we can to make this event productive for you from a recruiting aspect as well as providing a relaxing and enjoyable environment. Tournament activity in the JO divisions will be held at 4 locations, all within a reasonable distance from each other. However, the bulk of the schedule for these divisions will be held at Harvard Athletic Park, a 7-diamond complex laid out in close proximity. Bill Barber has a 4-diamond complex; Alton Park has a 2-diamond complex; and Lower Peters has a 1- diamond complex. We can provide team hotel locations which will allow you the option of meeting prospects at their hotel. For your comfort and convenience, we will have a hospitality tent erected at Harvard so that you can relax during the day. This is also where you can check in and pick up the “college book” of teams and player rosters.
We invite you to use any of our hotels listed on our website (please state Champions Cup) as they support the Champions Cup. Any questions or requests, please contact our Hotel Contracts Negotiator Susan Bollinger at sbollinger24@att.net or via phone at (714) 470-2698 and she will be happy to assist.
