Perfect Game Midwest will see over 330 teams invade Metro Kansas City for the 2021 Super Regional NIT – Hawaiian Hitfest Tournament. Eight age groups will play across 21 divisions as each club competes for the PG Silver Trophy.

Down in Belton, MO, beautiful Markey Park will see both the 10AA and 13A age groups competing for a championship, while Bettis Sports Park in Topeka, KS will host three divisions, 10AAA, 12AAA, and 14Major.
Youth Sports Park in Lawrence, KS will see the 11AA division playing at that wonderful venue.

Finally, Celebration Park in Gardner, KS and Heritage Park in Overland Park will host the 13AA and 14AA divisions, respectfully.
The depth and quality of the organizations participating for the PG Super Regional NIT crown is matched by none in the Midwest region this weekend, which should make for exciting, sound, and fast paced action at each level. The competition in each age group and division promises to be enthusiastic. The clubs who eventually earn their respective age group championship on Sunday afternoon will have certainly earned it.
