2018 NAFA World Series Fargo, North Dakota

Here is the link to select your hotels for this year’s event:

Out-of-town teams will be required to block their rooms through Fargo Moorhead Housing Department. To be eligible for the tournament, all participants and family members must book their rooms with the housing department. They act as every team’s personal reservation service, providing all teams with a one-stop-shop reservation process. This process ensures all teams have quality hotel accommodations and will reduce the last minute search for hotel rooms. Please note, hotels are first come first serve; popular hotels will book up quickly.

We will contact you when your team link is “live” and ready for your team to start making reservations!
