Event Updates

After returning to the fields tonight to assess their condition, it was determined that they will be unplayable on Sunday. We cannot even begin to work on them because the rain has not stopped and it appears that it won't stop until late tomorrow evening. Sorry, all Sunday games at the Ice Crystal Championship in Bradenton are cancelled. Please make sure your teams know before starting the drive to the parks in the morning.

February 18, 2024 - 04:09am

We are getting hit pretty good with rain and couldn't finish a few of our 6:30pm games. We will go back out and check the fields later tonight and send out an update. Thank you for your patience.

February 18, 2024 - 01:39am

After the 8:30am games begin, we will start all subsequent games early if possible. All teams should monitor the previous games on their field and be there ready to start when games end. Please make sure that everyone on your team is aware and will be onsite ready to go. Reminder: NO METAL CLEATS ALLOWED IN THE CAGES

February 17, 2024 - 12:20pm

Fields are dry and we are planning to start games on time as scheduled. We will send out a notice if anything changes. Thank you!
