USTSA-USA WORKS WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF LODGING PARTNERS IN OUR TOURNAMENT LOCATIONS TO SECURE PREFERRED LODGING RATES FOR ALL PARTICIPANTS & TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT ROOMS FOR ALL ATTENDING TEAMS. THROUGH OUR LODGING PROGRAM, ALL OUT-OF-TOWN TEAMS BOOK THEIR ROOMS THROUGH USTSA-USA LODGING PARTNERS & RECEIVE SPECIALLY DISCOUNTED RATES AT A VARIETY OF HOTELS. YOU CAN BOOK YOUR ROOMS ONLINE THROUGH THE USTSA-USA CALIFORNIA WEBSITE. ALL TEAMS THAT CALL THE HOTEL DIRECT MUST BOOK WITHIN THE USTSA-USA BLOCK & SUBMIT TEAM ROOMING LIST CONFIRMATION NUMBERS PRIOR TO THE WORLD SERIES. ANY RESERVATIONS BOOKED THROUGH A THIRD PARTY PROVIDER(e.g. hotels.com, expedia, hotwire, etc.) OR BOOKED OUTSIDE THE USTSA-USA ROOM BLOCK WILL NOT FULFILL REQUIREMENT.

LOCAL TEAMS
ALL TEAMS OUTSIDE A 100 MILE RADIUS MUST REQUEST A WAIVER ON THE LODGING POLICY
IF THEY CHOOSE NOT TO UTILIZE OUR LODGING PROGRAM. ANY TEAM NOT USING OUR LODGING
SERVICES NOT GRANTED A LODGING WAIVER MUST PAY THE LODGING BUYOUT FEE. NO EXCEPTIONS.

ALTERNATIVE LODGING ARRANGEMENTS
IF YOUR TEAM PLANS TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS OUTSIDE THE USTSA-USA LODGING PROGRAM(for example, to stay at an RV Park, with nearby relatives, etc.) PLEASE CONTACT THE EVENT DIRECTOR. BECAUSE THE LODGING PROGRAM HAS ALREADY BEEN DISCOUNTED FROM TOURNAMENT FEES, TEAMS THAT BOOK ALTERNATIVE LODGING CAN USE THE "Lodging Buyout" OPTION ($300 per team).
