Good Morning Everyone,
Happy Game Day! We are approximately 3 hours from our first pitch, so I wanted to take the time to send out a few reminders.
First of all, the facitity will open 90 minutes prior to first pitch all 3 days of the event, and there will be NO GATE FEE for spectators upon arrival. The facility does ask however that no one bring in any outside food or drink. This is a very strict policy and if you fail to adhere, they may ask you to leave.
The batting cage schedule and the rules are all listed on the Top Tier App. You can find the schedule under the "Messages" tab on the Indoor Classic event page. Coaches, please feel free to check in with Tournament Staff underneath the black tent upon arrival if you have absolutely any questions. Parents, there will also be Top Tier Merch for sale under this tent throughout the weekend!
Please feel free to utilize the Warm-Up area behind the bleachers to get your players warm, as there will be limited time between games. Please ensure that your pitcher is warm and ready to go at game time.
Finally, please remember that the Hub has a strict "No Spikes" policy. Please ensure your boys are wearing either Turf Shoes or Sneakers!
We are looking forward to seeing you all out there. Good luck to everyone this weekend!
All the best,
The Top Tier Team
attached you will find an assigned 15 minute window where your team can hit in a cage before each game.
This is completely optional, so don't feel like you have to use it. If you have a better system, by all means go for it!
There are two tunnels upstairs in the building. Each team has a 15 minute hitting sessions within 60 minutes of there scheduled game in ONE TUNNEL.
Hello Indoor Classic Teams!
We have partnered with the Twin Cities Sports Commission to offer hotel blocks and discounts.

Coaches
The Indoor Classic (Jan 10-12) is essentially FULL. Thank you for the tremendous response! Due to this high demand and an actively growing wait list of other teams wanting in, we are asking that all indoor events be paid by OCTOBER 15th.
Unpaid entries at that time will be moved to the waiting list and potentially replaced by teams from the wait list.
Teams on the wait list, if / when a spot becomes avaialable we will reach out to you directly.
If a spot doesn't come available for you, entry into the event will be an option if you are willing to play Friday - daytime (This only applies to wait list teams).
One last announcement...you may have heard or read that Top Tier Sports will allow BPF 1.15 bats. This means for all games 8u-13u players may legally swing BPF 1.15, USA, BBCOR, or WOOD.
Any questions, comments, or concerns can be sent to matt.creaser@toptiersports.net
