SUNDAY FOR THOSE SATURDAY TEAMS WHO WANT MORE ACTION!

PLAY21 Is Here… Where Every Run Counts! đź”ĄđźĄŽ

Coaches & Players,

Get ready for a softball format that’s fast, explosive, strategic — and flat-out FUN.

Introducing PLAY21, the NCS specialty event where every swing matters and games can flip in seconds.

If you love offense, pressure moments, and wild finishes…

👉 PLAY21 is YOUR tournament.

🔥 UNLIMITED HOME RUNS

Let the big dogs eat. No limits. No counting. No apologies.

⚡ Fast-Paced Format

  • 6 innings max — no open inning
  • 5 runs per inning
  • No time limit
    Games typically run 55-60 minutes… and every minute is chaos.



🎯 How You Win

  • First team to 21 runs = instant win
  • Or after 6 innings, highest score wins


Run Rule:

If a team is mathematically unreachable (example: up 11 after the 4th and opponent can’t tie), game over.
If the trailing team can still catch up, play continues.

This format mixes luck, skill, and nonstop adrenaline.


STRATEGY MATTERS đꑇ

👉 Visitors Advantage – LUCK MATTERS – BUT NOT AS MUCH AS IT SEAMS

Yes — going up to bat first is typically the move.

If you win the coin flip, take the sticks!

👉 Every Run is Gold

Race to 21 means no run is meaningless.

Momentum swings fast — defense still wins games.


EQUALIZER OPTIONS

When mixing SENIOR ages or levels:

  • Major vs Major Plus
  • Major vs AAA
  • 40’s vs 50’s
  • E VS D ETC


The lower/older team picks ONE:

1️Extra fielder (10th man)

OR
2️Start every inning with a runner on 2nd

Simple. Fair. Keeps the game competitive.

WHY PLAY21?

  • Fast, fun, and addicting
  • Pressure-packed innings
  • No dragging games
  • Home run fireworks
  • Strategy from pitch #1 to run #21
