Event Information

New for 2024: With the limited number of 18’s teams who registered last year and the overwhelming numbers of teams who are interested in participating in the 12u-17u divisions, we have decided to not have an 18’s division at Summerfest.

Also, teams registered in Open/Premier (Club/Classic) will select which division they prefer to participate in approximately 1 month prior to the event date via Google Form. Note: division preference is not guaranteed. Teams that do not select either division will be placed appropriately in a division by the JVA Seeding Committee.
