Jan. 8, 2016 d45 160 posts | Spring Worlds Does anyone know why they are only listing St. George for the Spring Worlds? Is St. George going to be the only venue where the games will be played? Can you clarify that SSUSA staff? I will miss going to Mesquite, however, it is close enough that a players could still stay there and drive over to St.George. |
Jan. 8, 2016 SSUSA Staff 3490 posts | The 2016 Spring World's will be held exclusively in St. George. The Mesquite hotels will be a part of the host hotel group for those who may wish to stay there (like the SSUSA tournament staff will likely do). |
Jan. 8, 2016 DieselDan Men's 75 602 posts | Besides the Snow Canyon Complex, the fields at Little Valley will all be used I understand. Those who wish to stay in Mesquite, can reach the SCC easily by taking Exit 8 for Beaver Dam and taking Old Highway 91 to Ivins, then it's only five miles from there. Littly Valley is probably quicker by taking I15 through the Virgin River Gorge to Exit 4. There still will be one lane each way at the bridge being worked on. |
Jan. 8, 2016 d45 160 posts | Thank you SSUSA staff and DieselDan for the info. Our team enjoys Mesquite a lot and the Spring Worlds. St. George is a great city, but the hotel rates in Mesquite are quite a bit less, plus they have a good night life after the games are over. |

Jan. 8, 2016 DieselDan Men's 75 602 posts | Any traffic jam will be caused by the rookies who see the 35 MPH sign before a curve and do 30. I take them at 50 whether on 2 or 4 wheels. If anyone is heading back to Mesquite when the sun is low in the afternoon, go another few miles beyond the Gunlock turn off and pull over to take a look at the view behind you. Magnificent. Pack a camera. (I've never taken the time to learn how to use my phone) |
