Most of the teams will consider the competition to be a culminating tournament, which families often treat as a vacation, Maestras said of the roughly 3,500 people in attendance. Triple Crown, the company that hosts the Fastpitch World Series (which is not associated with USA Softball), selects destination towns and cities to accommodate the vacation aspect of the tournament, Maestras said, then further facilitates vacations by partnering with local recreation businesses. The company works with Destination Sports and Adventures, which hosts rafting trips, as well as Park City Mountain Resort, for its summer programming. “We really try and push (the players) out to enjoy the location they are staying at,” Maestras said. “So, they get the whole outdoor experience as well.” The softball tournament will start with a parade at 5 p.m. on Monday on lower Main Street. Games will be played over two days of pool play, then three days of modified double elimination play, culminating with the championship game on Saturday. All players will receive glass trophies to commemorate the trip, with different trophies given to the champions. The games will be held at the Park City Sports Complex, Park City High School, TreaPlease see Softball, B-6 PARK RECORD FILE PHOTO Orange County Strikeforce Bustamante’s Julie Delgado sprints in an attempt to reach first base at the Park City Sports Complex during the Triple Crown Softball tournament in 2016.
