Pitch for the Cure Double NIT & Crystl Bustos Clinics - Great Prize Pkgs



Pitch for the Cure Description:

Pitch for the Cure is a girls' fastpitch softball tournament that raises funds for Chicks Charities but also has additional global ambitions attached to it. We connect regional youth to fight against breast cancer and empower girls to be active for change in their communities.

The 6th Annual Pitch for the Cure is presented by Northwest Arkansas Fastpitch Softball Association dba Springdale Chicks, in special partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure Ozark Affiliate.

Since creating and presenting the first Pitch for the Cure in 2006, we've raised $100,000 for Susan. G. Komen for the Cure. Our event donates 20% of all profits plus some of our weekend activities bring in fundraising dollars that are donated 100% to Komen.

Hi everyone~

The above description from our website was included for anyone that hasn't been to PFTC or our site. We'll host more than 160 team in 8UMP and 10U-18U brackets from at least 4 states.

I am happy to make new announcements for our 2011 PFTC event...

Besides close to 400 girls' fastpitch games, we'll be hosting several clinics during our event weekend with 3-time Olympic medalist Crystl Bustos, her personal hitting instructor Howard Carrier and former University of Missouri Tiger and Akron Racer Micaela Minner!

Pitch for the Cure will also be awarding more USSSA points this year! Not only do we return as a NIT event again, but we are a DOUBLE POINT NIT...and the USSSA point scale has increased for NIT events! Example: 1st place is now 225 instead of 150. If you double that at PFTC, you're at 450 points for 1st place teams!! (There are also more points deeper on the scale, which is great for an event the size of ours.)

You can see more info at 2011 New Stuff. The new point chart is shown. It also talks about a coach/parent clinic on Friday afternoon and PFTC player only clinics on Saturday. Sunday there will be two player clinics that are open to all players on Sunday, such as players who's teams didn't make it into the event or community players or in other areas.

The site will be updated with a clinic flyer soon. We are holding player clinic registration until February so that teams can start to register...but space is limited. You can join us on all the normal social media hangouts or on our online newsletter to get the registration details! (Social)

And one other note... Team registration is open

Hope to see you there!
