Competitive League
COMPETITIVEDIVISION INFORMATION
IS IPGSA Comp Division the right choice for your team?
100% of your game and practice schedules are up to the Coach.
If you don't want to play in May because of school activities... don't schedule.
If you want all of your games in March and April to prepare for the Tourney season... so be it.
IPGSA brings Coaches together to schedule all of the games you can handle or as few games as you want.
What if games rain/snows out?You can make it up or not (we don't like to stress out the coaches & families)... it will not count against you for the end of season tourney.
IPGSA COST:$200 a team ($35 is league fees... and $165 is for the End of Season (EOS) Double Elimination tournament)
Additional cost you will need to account for:
Home team provides field, 1 ball and 1 ump. (Sell snacks if possible at home games... you will cover the ump).
To keep field cost minimal... Many teams drop one practice every other week.
Ump Cost: $35-$40 a game.
You can schedule your games as Double Headers and split ump cost or play Single Games.
Some teams will play 4 games on an open Saturday/Sunday during the season.
There are many options on what your schedule can look like, it's all up you.
Depending on the teams; we can form the divisions North & South for easy travel... or Gold & Silver for best games.
The coaches will decide at the meeting (majority rules)... rule changes, schedules and EOS Tourney Dates.
TOTAL COST:$400ish... But, you play 15-25 games with league and tourney. (Tourneys would cost $1,000+)
There is no limit to.... when you practice, how much you practice, how many tourneys you are in... no limits pretty much for everything, except for having quality games, improving skills, team bonding and having fun!
