MAY 11 & 12, 2024

• The tourney games will be at Cartee

• Every team will feature a custom SuperDraft jersey
• We’re planning on 20 men’s (220 players) and 8 women’s teams (88 players).
• Deadline to get a spot is March 8
• The drafts will be live TBA. This early draft will allow us time to get the jerseys done, will remove the rushed process to the draft, and will give us more game slots which means more turf usage.

SIGNING UP

We reserve the right to refund tickets before the draft or replace players after the draft if we should find players who do any of the following:

• Sign-up under a false or unfamiliar name (Lenny Bopez is grandfathered in)
• Provide false information on their skill levels
• Players that have no-showed at our previous SuperDraft tourneys

HOW THE WAITLIST WORKS

BEFORE THE DRAFT: If we’ve hit our team total, we’ll halt sign-ups and start a waitlist. If players drop off the active list due to injury or other issues

AFTER THE DRAFT: Once the draft is done WE WILL NOT ADD new teams but will use the waitlist to fill positions should players be unable to attend.

Can't emphasize this enough, the SuperDraft is a TWO DAY tourney, Saturday and Sunday. If you can’t play both days PLEASE do not sign up. Teams are drafted with the expectation that players can make it to both days games.

Why we do it? Softball season in Alaska is short and every weekend counts. Early season tourneys typically have lower team turnouts but we think it’s not because players don’t want to play it’s just harder to get full teams.

What it is? Our solution is a SuperDraft tournament - think of when you were a kid and you had to choose up teams from everyone that wanted to play. We’re going back to basics, we’re playing to just play. No Nationals berth, no roster checks, nothing, just play the game and make some new friends and shake off the cobwebs from the long Alaska winter.

Who? 11 players to a team so everyone plays. You don’t have to play on a men’s or women’s team, COED PLAYERS are more than welcome and even encouraged. Hell you don’t even need to have a team yet as we’re hoping new players can use the tourney to network a little, show their skills and find a team that fits their play. THIS IS A TWO DAY EVENT, Please don’t sign-up if you can’t commit to playing both days.

How? One of the concerns that has popped up several times is how will the teams be balanced. We can’t guarantee that all the teams will have the same roster and that every game will come down to the last at bat. What we are doing is making sure the people we pick as coaches are knowledgable about the talent that is available and that they are competitive and interested in putting a team together. The draft will be very similar to a fantasy football or baseball draft, 1-16, 16-1 and so on. It will be up to the coach to make the decision about when to grab a pitcher and just how important is a shortstop. We hope by making solid choices for coaches it will help make the rosters a little more balanced.

Jerseys will be available at the tourney. Draft will take place the first weekend of April.

BE RESPONSIBLE: If you sign-up and can’t make it please let us know prior to the draft.
