We         currently have 7 fields reserved for the event.<\/p>\n<p>The entry fee for the tournament is $400 and the NAFA 3-game         guarantee bracket will be used for all divisions.\u00a0 It is open to         all fast pitch teams and if your team has not yet paid their         NAFA registration fee, there will be an additional $20 fee which         will be forwarded to your State Director.\u00a0 With a minimum of         eight (8) teams in a division, the winner will have their 2011         NAFA World Series entry fee paid for the division they played         in.\u00a0 Also, to help keep tournament costs down, if your team         books at least five (5) rooms and stays at our host hotel you         will receive $25 back on your entry fee.\u00a0 I am currently         negotiating hotel rates and will send the information out         shortly on our host hotel and how to book the rooms for the         rebate on your entry fee.<\/p>\n<p>Information regarding the event, game results and player         statistics will be posted on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scifastpitch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.scifastpitch.com<\/a> .\u00a0 This year&#8217;s tournament once again will be played at Sunset         Park and Warm Springs Park, both are located with 1\/4-mile of         each other and are located by the Las Vegas airport.\u00a0 Game times         will be available once the tournament is filled or by March         19th.<\/p>\n<p>Team interested in         playing should contact Robert Hernandez at <a href=\"mailto:rmh323@roadrunner.com\" target=\"_blank\">rmh323@roadrunner.com<\/a> or         <a href=\"tel:714-392-1387\" target=\"_blank\">714-392-1387<\/a>.\u00a0 All teams will need to submit a roster listing         all their players with their entry fee and identifying there         pitchers.\u00a0 Checks can be made out to &#8220;SCIFL&#8221; and forwarded to         Robert Hernandez, P.O.
