USSSA Memorial Day NIT

Welcome to the home for the USSSA Memorial Day NIT.  On this page you will find information regarding all aspects of the event. 

In 2011, this event grew to 196 teams and was played at multiple venues across the KC Metro Area.  For this season, we will designate divisions to specific parks or portions of the city.  We have split the parks into an East (including Adair Park, Frank White, and Markey Park) and West (Basehor-Field of Dreams & Mid America West) region.  You can look below and see the table that shows which divisions will be divided into those regions.

Also new for 2012, we will be adding C Divisions for all age groups.  They will also be a part of the NIT, meaning that teams will earn 3x as many points, and we will DOUBLE the amount of World Series berths awarded for this event.

We hope to see you on this holiday weekend tournament.  Please check back frequently as we will continue to update information as it becomes available.
