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 the 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 10u-14u.  In addition, there may be Major and Minor divisions set up depending on the number of teams registered.  

 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.

NATIONS QUALIFIER

The tournament is also a Nations qualifier.  Playing in the OPL and in the OPL Tournament automatically qualifies your team for the Nations State Tournament.
