Las Vegas Worlds Details Info/FAQs
Yes we sell balls at all fields along with great swag = jerseys, jackets, hoodies, hats, beanies, batting gloves and more - also come see ELITE SPORTS Gear @ BLD
Divisions will conflict: Divisions will also be at different parks throughout the Vegas area so it will be extremely difficult to play on 2 separate teams. Also, you can only play on one team of the same gender – for example... if playing Men’s D you can’t play Men’s E or Men’s C etc.
Anyone playing in the Open or C division CAN’T PLAY ON ANY "E" TEAM!
All teams must be annually registered and add roster on-line at www.playncs.com
3 Game Guarantee: If a team NO SHOWS and you receive a forfeit this does give your team a win and counts toward your 3GG.
Divisions with 40 teams or more may be split into 2 brackets with the winners of each bracket playing one final game for the Championship regardless of record
Game Lengths and Times
Adult E, D, All FORCES 60 minutes (Championships 70 Minutes)
Upper Divisions 65 minutes / Seniors 60 Minutes plus open inning (70 Mins + Open Inning for Championships)
All listed game times are approximate start times – be prepared to start up to 15 minutes early. If other team and umpires are ready, there could be a loss of game if your team isn’t ready to go. (Game times can change due to unforeseen circumstances so always check master brackets at the fields)
