The GlowBall event will be happening Saturday night of the tournament at the complex! We currently have a waitlist (as of 6/3) for teams to enter in this optional additional event, but are looking at having additional games on Friday night for waitlisted teams. GlowBall is a separate event from the tournament itself. Please email Alexa at [email protected] with any questions!
💰 Cost/Payment: $600 per team (12 kids, $50 more for each additional). A link for your team to pay will be sent the week before the tournament. Paying then will officially secure your spot.
❌ Once the payment link is sent out the week prior, anyone who does not pay, will lose their spot and it will be offered to the next waitlisted team.
⏰ Time frames:
7:15 – 8:30 pm Checkin & decorating 💅
8:30 – 9:15 pm Warm ups 🏃♀️
9:30 – 11:00 pm GLOW TIME! 🥳
GlowBall is softball, and an all-new hybrid game brought to life under blacklights. Think high-energy traditional softball but with a glowing, music-filled festival like spectacle by night.
Kids light up – literally – with painted neon uniforms, glowing face paint, and neon gear they customize in the GlowZone before the blacklight countdown. Parents fill the bleachers to watch the field transform into a glowing arena, where every pitch and homerun looks like a scene from a sci-fi film.
