National Invitational Championship Registration - 13's and 10's

Congratulations on qualifying for the 2008 MCYSA/USSSA Summer National Invitational Championships. Those of us that work on this tournament are proud of the event and will do whatever we can to keep the focus of your time on the tournament and its related events.

With that goal in mind, I beg you to preregister your team 7 days prior to arriving at the tournament. I have yet to meet a coach, player, or parent that would choose to be inside registering rather than preparing to play ball.

If I can be of any assistance with the preregistration process, please feel free to call or email me.

What's involved in preregistering?

Prior to arriving at the tournament your team contact person will need to complete the following and send all the materials to me as registration coordinator. Please note that you'll have to download two forms and then make copies for each player. It might be wise to delegate this responsibility to a person proficient with a computer. Also, it is wise to schedule a team meeting to address the MCYSA/USSSA registration process with players and parents so that accurate information and required signatures can be obtained. In an emergency situation, this information could be priceless.

Thank you for your attention to the details.

THE REQUIRED FORMS

Program Waiver And Release Of All Claims Form - Form 1
Form 1 must be signed by both the player and a legal guardian/parent.

Consent By Parent/Guardian For Medical Treatment Of A Minor - Form 2
This form must be completed for each player and signed by a parent/guardian.

Collect Birth Certificates
A photocopy of the birth certificate for each player on your roster must be given to the Tournament Committee as part of registration. These copies will NOT be returned to you.

Proof of Insurance
Your team must provide the Tournament Committee a certificate proving that you have accident, medical, and liability coverage for your team and your players.
