TCS runs the best tournaments from start to finish than any other organization. The Sparkler specifically is quite an undertaking, and every year I walk away amazed at how well the tournament is run. From games times you can count on, to professionalism by the staff, to education of the college recruiting process. EXCELLENT!!" --Lady Hustle, CA "I have to let you know that this was the first time I had been to the Sparkler and it was everything the people said it was. It was the best run tournament I have been involved with in 10 years of coaching. I was very impressed with everything from the fields, the umpires and the people at the fields to answer questions." --Anonymous "I wanted to thank you and tell you how grateful we were to participate in the Sparkler this year. It was without a doubt the most professionally run tournament we have played all year. We appreciate all that you did to arrange the discounted fun events; the overall experience of all three of our teams there was totally positive! You can count us in for next year at the Sparkler!" --Missouri Revolution "I am the coaches wife and our daughter went to Virginia Tech on a softball scholarship. We have been to a lot of tournaments through the years, but we have never been to a tournament that has been so informative and helpful with anything and everything, as this one has! You guys have done a great job and I wanted to let you know it. I don't think people stop and think how difficult it is to put on a tournament of this size. We do appreciate all that you have done!! Forward this to the entire committee, our hats are off to you all." --Diamond Dusters, WV REFUND POLICYA 20% non-refundable administration fee will be charged on all registrations.
