The hotel is about 6 miles from where we are playing from one site we will be playing at. It will also be playing at other facilities, so please be aware that you will need to leave early for game times, especially with LA traffic.
The website to find the schedule will be www.doublepump.com . It will be located under the Best of Summer Tourney. All teams will be in this tourney.
We will be leaving according to when the teams last game is complete. In past, some teams finish earlier than others, and so we sent home those players on the bus and the others left at a later time. The earliest a team will be finished will be Tuesday the 29th. The latest will be Thursday July 31st. We will ensure that your child contacts you letting you know when they will be departing for home.
This is a long 11 day trip. Please make sure your child has enough money for either entertainment, extra spending money, extra food money and so forth. They may also need money to wash their individual clothes if necessary.
*** We will not be doing any special arrangements for kids still in summer school. If they need to get to Los Vegas , they will be on their own if they do not ride the bus. If your family plans on traveling down and are taking your kid, please make sure to communicate with your coach that you are doing this.
