TRIPLE CROWN SPORTS WORLD SERIES
This National event is held in Park City, Utah (GREAT DESTINATION), site of the 2002 Winter Olympics.
Park City is a drivable destination (500 miles / 8-9 hours) that has an Estes Park feel to it. This small community set in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah offers GREAT lodging and great restaurants. The weather is great. Typically the temperature is in the high 80s to low 90s, but it can get hotter. LOW humidity. Cool nights. The surrounding Summit County offers horse back riding and river rafting. Salt Lake is just a short 1/2 hour drive away.
Last year the event drew 350 teams over the three week period. Teams from TWENTY states and CANDA attended. 235 teams participated in the Skills contests and 700 girls participated in the All Star games. We are anticipating 400 teams in 2008.
The 16UA and 18UA Championship games will be taped for cable TV on FRIDAY night (July 25). Last year these events were syndicated to over 40 million viewers across the USA.
The 18UA All Star games will also be held on Friday evening. These teams will be coached by college coaches contracted by Triple Crown.
NEW THIS YEAR - we are planning a Main Street Parade for opening ceremonies. Teams will parade through the main shopping / restaurant district of Park City on Monday evening. Families and friends will line the streets and see every team in the event. A VIP panel will select teams for special awards during the parade.
