Tournaments

Tournaments will be handled the same way it was last year. Let me know if you have your eye on a specific tournament so we can jump on them. We will see what we can do.

Teams can register for two local and one out-of-town tournament (60 miles from Fogerty Arena). SLPYHA hosted tournaments, if offered at your level, are considered one of the local tournaments. Teams are budgeted $2,000 ($2,500 for Bantams and U14) that can also be applied towards gate fees.

Any amount exceeding the team’s budget cannot exceed $75 per player, it can’t be over 60 miles from Fogerty Arena, it can’t conflict with D10 scheduling and you have to make sure you fall within the squirt/U10 limits for games and/or practice ratios. Please refer to the handbook for this.

It is important to discuss with parents/guardians if they are able to contribute additional funds towards additional costs that may incur due to additional fees involved for tournament participation.

Any out of state tournaments have to be approved by D10.

Dryland Schedule

The schedulers are not longer able to schedule dryland for you. The process has changed. You will need to contact Fogerty directly (fogertyarena@fogertyarena.com or 763-780-3328 Ext. 6). Mite teams must let me know what dryland hours they have scheduled because they count toward the 3/1 practice/game ratio

Follow the link below to see all the open hours available. The SLPYHA website is no longer the master list. http://www.fogertyarena.com/open_dry-land.htm I will add them to your master list, just let me know what hours you have gotten after they are reserved with Fogerty.
