Which fields at Schaumburg, Illinois?????
Hey out there...we are taking two teams to the Midwest Championships (a 60 & 65 team). Tried to find out from Sacramento which fields the two teams would play on...& basically got the run-a-round. Want to make motel arrangements and would like to stay close to where we play. Anyone have any information that could help us.

Harri, Go to the Tournament section and hi light the Midwest Championships and you will find info on fields there. They are using 3 different complexes in 3 different towns so good luck.

We are also looking for field assignments as some of the traffic can be pretty bad in that area so want the hotel closest to the fields. Fossils 60 Major team.

Called then early last week and they were working on it but still nothing.

Hey guys...one of our players called today and was told that our 65 team would be playing at the Schaumburg fields. Would still like to know about the 60's.

Our 65's "social director" will be going through priceline for our rooms. He usually gets a great deal, but the risks are rainouts, which did happen to us at a previous tournament. By any chance have any of you booked through SSUSA...if so whay kind of prices did you get. Thanks

Don't know if this helps at all but I had heard they are are only using the Berens fields on Friday. That park has 5 fields, Itasca has 2 fields and the Schaumburg park has 5 fields for those not familiar with any of these. Good luck getting any info.

Hey all, You can google earth and put addresses in, then you will see where all complexs are located. They are approx 10 to 15 mins from each other. But schaumburg would be the ideal choice for Hotel reservations. Berens sports complex is in Elmhurst not to much around it but residental. Itasca complex is about the same situation.
Good luck

Motel Info: Hey Corky...I will try not to stutter this time. Our Budweiser 65's "social director" got a great deal on rooms near Schaumburg fields. He went through priceline and got a 3 1/2 star motel for $52 plus tax. I called them and the best price I could get was $78. The risk you take is that it is non-refundable. So if you are willing to do that, you can save a bundle.
Good luck...see you in Schaumburg

This Tournament starts in 9 days for the 65s, you would think that field assignments or something would be posted by now for all divisions. We still count even tho this is in the Midwest and not the West part of the country.:)
