When do I pay the Tournament Entry Fee? 

All KC&BO tournaments are first pay/first play. Your entry into an event is not complete until you have paid the entry fee or the gate fee. Your age/division may sell out prior to the payment deadline, in fact they usually do. The number of available spots in a division may fluctuate depending on the needs of all divisions that share the same field size. KC&BO does not accept checks. If you need to pay by cash, the deadlines still apply and you will need to make arrangements with us to drop off a cash payment. At a minimum our Entry/Gate fees are due on the Friday, one week prior to the tournament dates. Again, this is at a minimum. Please Note: our events typically sellout EARLY, so don't delay, pay early to secure your spot (our goal is to schedule over that weekend and post schedules on Monday/Tuesday). SEE TOURNAMENT PAYMENT & REFUND POLICY BELOW.

Do teams supply their own baseballs? 

Yes, teams supply their own baseballs for game play.
