The event targets 16U and 18U teams, expects 8–10 teams per division and potentially 20+ teams from across Kansas, with anticipated hotel stays and local business use.

This is a recurring tournament and the grant supports event marketing and operations, creating an opening for event, hospitality, and sports vendors to engage the organizers.
