To start, it’s probably the most fun you’ll have playing slow pitch softball all year, that’s what! Simply put, anyone who wants to come out and play softball on Feb 24-27, 2022
at Cactus Yards in Gilbert AZ; no matter who they play for during the regular season, no matter what class/sanction they play, no matter age (need to be 18+), and no matter sex!

We take all of these people, throw their names into a hat, draw random teams, and play ball! When it's over....it's over!Being part of a Mega Draft allows you to relax a bit and have FUN like the game was meant to be played!

You'll have no idea how good your team is, or how good the the other teams are. No team is the "Favorite", because every team is an unknown. There are far too many variables and such little time to put it all together, that EVERY TEAM stands a fair chance at winning. 

How quickly can your team gel, put all the pieces of the puzzle together, and put a winning lineup out on the field? That's the trick. The '19 Spiderz Sin City Mega Draft Champions went 0-2 in their first 2 games before going undefeated the rest of the tournament! 

Come prepared to play ball, meet some new "like minded" people (let's be honest...us slow pitch players are a rare breed!), HAVE FUN, and enjoy the everything that Spring Training has to offer!

Location: Cactus Yards 4536 E. Elliot Road Gilbert, AZ 85234

Give FREE stuff away and let people know this is MORE than just a softball tournament..... it's an EXPERIENCE!
