Join us at the NSA World Series Parade of Teams and Opening Ceremonies Celebration that brings players, families, and fans together for a well-deserved tournament break filled with fun and excitement. After two days of pool play, teams can relax and enjoy a festive evening featuring the parade of teams, skills winner announcements, delicious food vendors, a beer garden, live music from a DJ, a braid bar, bounce houses, photobooths, and the popular WNBA Fan Jam Truck. It's the perfect way to recharge, celebrate the spirit of the tournament, and create lasting memories for all ages!
Check back for a map of DROP OFF and Parking in the area. NO NEED TO RUSH: Your team will parade in the order you get in line during the staging. Age Groups do NOT need to be together. Multiple age groups from one organization CAN parade together if you all get in line at the same time.
Parade Details: Our goal is for the players to be comfortable and have fun! There is no theme for the parade. Some teams will come in matching team shirts and shorts, some funny hairdos, face paint, big hats, tutus, and some teams go all out and wear full costumes. Use your imagination. Team banners CAN be carried in the parade. Please - NO CANDY.
In 2023 we had 123 teams participate in the parade. It took 35 mins from start to finish. Teams will parade, and will be announced.
Diamond Sport Gearwill be on site with World Series Specials including 15% to 77% OFF BATS, 25% to 40% OFF GLOVES & More!
