Triple Crown has an official lodging online platform that teams are required to use for booking lodging. This convenient software automates and simplifies booking and reporting your rooms. When a team is paid and registered the coach will be emailed a custom team booking link. Teams that register early have first access to book lodging with our approved hotel partners. Many hotels or room types sell out fast. This system will allow you to request more rooms at some hotels but this is NOT a guarantee. We are always working to add hotels and more rooms so please check the feed regularly. For assistance please contact Triple Crown Sports Customer Success at 1-888-723-2064 or by email at teamrelations@eventconnect.io
The link below will allow you only to view lodging partners, you will need your custom team link to block or book rooms. Rooms can not be booked directly with a hotel, on their website or thru a 3rd party.
PAID BERTH QUALIFIER - The only tournament where you can win a free entry into the greatest tournament in the country - The Omaha SlumpBuster during the CWS
Important to note - we are not a sanctioning body. Meaning, you do not have to pay any sanctioning fees, use our specific insurance, or anything along those lines. To pencil or pay you do need to create a free account and team in our system, but there is no cost to do so.
Important Frisco Classic Ticket Information
All paid teams are eligible for 14 free tickets to the Frisco Classic on FRIDAY, February 28. To receive the tickets, teams need to be paid into the event and respond to the official OPT IN form by Tuesday, Feb 11! Tickets are good for either or both games on Friday at Riders Field.
Come Play in the Texas Season Opener! Compete with the best in the Southwest in an event truly built for teams. We offer both a 3 game and 4 game guarantee option. Why? An event this early means some teams want as many reps as possible (4 game guarantee) and some are just getting arms into shape (3 game guarantee). Teams who select the 4 game guarantee option will play one Exhibition Game on Friday evening that does not effect seeding, but does count toward the overall pitching limits.

1. Is there a team limit on a division to win the SlumpBuster qualifier?
Yes, there needs to be a minimum of 10 teams in a division to have a Summer Nationals entry Qualification. Any division with less than 10 teams will receive a credit into Omaha for the amount of the Season Opener
2. Can I use this in 2026?
No, there are no rollovers on the entries. You have to use the entry in the year you won the berth
3. Do I need to register for SlumpBuster before this tournament?
You need to register for SlumpBuster before the event sells out. We are not holding spots for division winners. Note - in 2024, most divisions sold out completely by the first week of January. More than likely you will need to register for Omaha before playing in the Season Opener
4. How do I redeem the free entry?
Teams need to register and pay for the SlumpBuster. The head coach will receive a check for the value of the registration at check in.
5. Why do we need to pay to register?
To ensure that your team shows up. In order for Triple Crown to hold a spot we need payment in hand.
6. I see multiple brackets in my division, do we all get an entry if we win?
No. If a division is large enough to have multiple brackets, only the HIGHEST BRACKET is eligible for the SlumpBuster Qualifier. For example, if there are twenty-four teams and we do two brackets of 12 teams, only seeds 1-12 have a chance to compete for a SlumpBuster Qualifier. Make sure to give it your all-in pool play for a chance to land in the top bracket
7. My team isn’t going to SlumpBuster, can I give my entry to another team or club?
No, there are no transfer of entries between teams. Even if both teams are apart of the same club/organization, you cannot transfer the entry fee.
8. I want cash value instead, is that allowed?
No, teams can redeem for an entry into the SlumpBuster or treat it as a normal tournament win.

Division 1: Our top competitive level, which you will see listed simply as 9u, 10u, and so on. This is our most competitive division which includes “Select / Elite” teams and is also open to any team that wants to compete.
Division 2: When you see Division 2 (or D2) after the age group, that indicates a bracket designed for teams that are not yet ready to compete with top teams. Division 2 is similar to the second-tier divisions you see in national sanctioning organizations. However, even if you are sanctioned as a lower team by a national sanctioning body, that does not guarantee you will play Division 2 with Triple Crown.
Division 3: Includes teams that are less competitive than Division 2 teams.Here is how Triple Crown compares with other sanctioning bodies. However, we always encourage teams to play up.
Division 1= Major or National
Division 2= AAA or American
Division 3= AA or Minor (Not offered in Colorado)
No, being penciled-in shows that your team is interested in attending. Only a paid registration in full guarantees your spot into the event. Triple Crown will attempt to reach out to teams as divisions are close to selling out but that does not always happen. It is the team’s responsibility to pay before the division is sold out
Whomever has access to your team's Triple Crown Account can log in and click on the roster tab. Add all the players names and birthdates with the parent contact information (name, number and email). Once the roster is complete, click the “Send Parent Authorization” button and it will send out the digital waivers to the parents to sign allowing their son/daughter to participate in the event. Any player that does not have the parent waiver signed, will not be allowed to participate.
