Don't wait to register your team!
Space is limited for this special event.

Pitch for the Cure is set up as an open tournament with a 3-game minimum.  For youth teams 10U through 18U, this is a fastpitch USSSA NIT tournament.  EARN DOUBLE USSSA POINTS!!  Each team must be registered with USSSA prior to starting the first tournament game which is $30.00.  If you are not already registered, you can visit the USSSA website at  USSSA Create UserID or include it with your Pitch for the Cure Team Registration Form. 

  • Save $25.00!  Teams that register prior to April 1st, receive a discounted registration fee.

  • First place teams in each fastpitch bracket will receive softball helmets with face guards from Schutt Sports in team colors for the entire team!  For 2008 these helmets are Schutt's new AIR-3 batting helmets.  Teams have a choice of regular or ponytail versions in their stock 1 or 2 color paint finishes.  (See page 4 of the online pdf edition of the Schutt Sports 2008 Catalog.)

  • Individual awards are presented for 1st-4th place teams in each bracket.

  • Post-game data will be available at www.usssa.com.

  • Pitch for the Cure will provide all tournament game balls and scorekeepers.

  • At team check-in, players receive a Schutt Sports back-sack with great giveaway products from our sponsors and supporters.

  • Non-player (& non-coach) attendees will pay a gate entrance fee each day.  (Teams do not pay a "gate fee".)

  • Please check out the other team and individual activities that are taking place this weekend.  (Some require pre-registration or additional fees.) 

Teams must be pre-registered and show pre-registration at check-in. 
Entry deadline is FRIDAY (5-31-08) preceding the tournament weekend, but teams will be taken on a first come, first served basis and space is limited.

Teams will not be bracketed unless entry fee ($225.00) is received by deadline date.  (Or $200.00 for April 1st discount.)  Withdrawals after deadline will result in forfeiture of entry fee.

Mail your registration form!  OR Pay online! 
Your registration confirms that you release any persons involved with Pitch for the Cure, Springdale Chicks, Northwest Arkansas Fastpitch Softball Association and Komen for the Cure of any liability for any injuries or damages that you or your team incur including but not limited to your coaches, players, parents, paid personnel or volunteers.

In addition to team registration fees, we challenge each team to raise funds to give directly to Ozark Komen for the Cure.  We refer to this as your "Team Challenge Donation" which is due at the tournament.  (Fundraising Tips)  In 2006, we collectively gave Ozark Komen $10,000...in 2007 it was $15,000!  Let's see if we can make it to $18,000 for 2008.  This would include each team fundraising and contributing to the Team Challenge Donations, the Springdale Chicks donation of 20% of profits, Top Gun contest fees and other direct donations.

Because Team Challenge Donations are direct donations without a service, they are 100% tax-deductible as dictated by law.  An award will be given to the team with the highest Team Challenge Donation in each bracket and an overall Grand Award Winner.
