MANASSAS, VIRGINIA USA - The ISSA/ISF World Tournament of Champions will get underway next month on January 27-29 at various venues in the Tampa, Florida region.  This event will bring together champions from most softball associations to battle on the field to determine the "best of the best."  A list of the registered teams is posted on the ISSA Website.  Any teams who have not mailed their roster and entry fee should do so immediately.  Additional teams can still be accepted in some divisions (interested teams should contact the ISSA Office at [email protected] or 571-436-9704.

ISSA SPRING TRAINING TRAIL - The ISSA has created three early-bird senior tournaments to give teams an opportunity to take to the field early in ISSA competition in 2012.  The three (3) tournaments that make up the "Trail" are at Myrtle Beach, SC, Burlington, NC and Columbus, GA.  Teams that play in all three of these tournaments will receive a PAID berth in the 2012 ISF Senior World Cup at Salem, VA in June (anyone who has not played at Salem should review the Photo Gallery and/or Videos on the ISSA Website to check out the outstanding facilities.).  The three venues are great softball destinations and will afford the players an excellent tournament experience at each location.  The first tournament at Myrtle Beach will utilize the six new synthethic turf fields at Grand Park (Market Commons) for all three days of the event (Friday, Saturday and Sunday).  Ocean front rooms are available at the host hotel starting at $59 per night and the hotel will host some off-the-field events for the players andtheir guests.  Teams interested in playing in any of the "Trail" tournaments are encouraged to submit their online entry form(s) now to insure a spot in the tournament.
