LAS VEGAS TOURNAMENTS We offer world class tournaments featuring the two largest SSUSA events in the USA. Las Vegas offers the finest hotels, entertainment, restaurants and gaming. The warm, dry climate along with exclusive use of the Trump "Rock" softball and field maintenance between every game make Las Vegas the premier place to play softball. Our selection of ballfields is top notch.
SOUTHWEST CHAMPIONSHIPS With 216 teams this year, this always growing event is the 2nd largest on the SSUSA circuit. Las Vegas Senior Softball, along with SSUSA makes this a great event. Temps are usually in the mid 80's with very low humidity. This tournament is not reserved for just residents of the Southwest. So wherever you live, you're welcome to join us.
WORLD MASTERS CHAMPIONSHIPS The granddaddy of all senior softball features more than 600 teams from all over the world. Many believe they have to win a qualifier to be in this tournament, but that is not true. All SSUSA qualified roster teams are welcome. Beginning in the third week of September, the World Masters is open to all ages from 40+ thru 85+ at all different levels of play. This is the one event you don't want to miss. Rings are given out to all bracket winners. Come out and show us how good you are. |
