HOST HOTEL DEALS 

Register early, submit your deposit, and LOCK IN your spot before it’s gone!

💡 To be safe, deposits should be PAID ASAP. Or ONCE ITS SOLD OUT TO LOCK YOUR TEAM IN!!! You are not locked in until you have a deposit down… 

💰 DEPOSITS
• Adult Divisions – $95 (NR) Deposit
• Senior Divisions – $95 (NR) Deposit

NCS/ charges deposits for some events. This procedure will not only protect NCS, but will also protect those teams that are ready to play, but have to take a forfeit due to teams no-showing. 

We have found that teams are more likely to be serious about showing up when they put down a deposit upfront / have “skin-in-the-game” versus teams that sign up with no deposit with the “hopes” of getting enough players… 

Thanks for your understanding and we’ll see you at the fields.

⚠️ Once a deposit is made, the remaining balance is due BEFORE your 1st game – CASH ONLY.

📋 IMPORTANT
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Once schedules are released, your team is responsible for the FULL ENTRY FEE.

🤝 SPORTSMANSHIP MATTERS

Thank you for competing with NCS.

Sportsmanship is a major part of all NCS events. Arguing with umpires will NOT be tolerated. Respect the game, respect the officials, and compete the right way.

📌 PLEASE NOTE


Certain NCS directors and tournaments may have special rules, policies, formats, or awards depending on the region, location, or tournament type.

Please check the EVENT INFO page on the tournament website or contact the tournament director BEFORE entering if you have questions.
