General Info

Welcome to the Crown Point VRC MS Tournament.

Our hope is to provide you with a fast-paced, fair, and fun tournament. This event has 3 State Qualification Spots; 1= MS Excellence, and 2 = Champions. Please note that Crown Point is in the Central time zone and plan accordingly.

For this tournament, Middle School will be sharing space with a concurrent HS tournament but MS will play in its own bracket and on their own field.

The plan is for: 

1 MS Competition Field (Portable)

1 Shared Skills Field (Portable)

1 Shared Practice Field. 

If we actually get close to 32 teams registered, we will be open to adding fields.
