Where the Fun Begins!
Tournament Bid Process The open bid process occurs in October and November of each year. Selection requests must be submitted to Parks & Recreation Athletics staff by the end of November. Our tournament committee will review each request and settle any conflicting dates. You will be notified in December which dates you have been awarded for the upcoming calendar year. Upfront deposits are not required to secure your dates. HOWEVER, there will be a $300 penalty per park for events that are cancelled by the tournament host. Should the tournament be compromised because of weather, no penalty will be imposed. Proof of liability insurance must be submitted to the Town of Mooresville prior to hosting your first event. **PLEASE NOTE: Due to the process used to assign final dates, the Parks & Recreation bid process calendar MUST be submitted that reflects your requests. No emails or phone calls will be honored as the official submittal of your date requests.
