Dear Coaches,

The 3rd Annual Ohio Prospects League Spring Tournament will be Friday, May 21st to Sunday, May 23rd.  We have decided to call the tournament the Greater Cleveland Spring Championship Tournament.

WHAT IS THIS TOURNAMENT?

One of the benefits of playing in the Ohio Prospects League is that you have an opportunity to play in the OPL Spring Tournament.  This tournament has no entry fee!  The league pays for umpire fees and field fees for the championship game and will provide trophies for the winning team and runnerup.  

The tournament is optional.  You must let the league know that you are interested as it is available first come first serve.

WHERE?

The 9u to 14u games will be played at Victory Park, Maplewood and other locations.

DIVISIONS

The OPL Tournament will be broken by age group 9u-14u.  In addition, there may be Major and Minor divisions set up, just as will league play in the OPL.  For instance, last season we had a 14u Major Champion and 14u Minor Champion.  It will be set up the same way for the OPL Tournament.

 EXPENSE

There is no entry fee!  All tournaments that you participate in are set up to profit the tournament.  For the OPL Tournament, the teams that are participating in the tournament will split up the field cost and umpire fees.  The league will pay for the fields and umpires for the championship game for each division and provide trophies to winners and runner-ups for each division.

Also, the OPL will give a full refund of field costs if the tournament is rained out.  And if the tournament is not completed because of weather, we give back the cost of the games not played.  In other words, you only pay for what you play.  Most tournaments nowadays do not provide any refund unless teams get no games in.

OPL teams can take advantage of this competitive tournament at very little cost!  To take advantage, please register your team with the Ohio Prospects League and let us know that you want to play in the OPL Tournament.  To register for the OPL please fill out a Team Application Form:     2021 OPL Team Application Form
