Lodging

The tournament committee has partnered with the Fargo-Moorhead Convention & Visitors Bureau (FMCVB) to secure competitive rates and reserve hotel room blocks for visiting teams.

To help keep registration fees low, all traveling teams staying in a hotel must book their rooms through the FMCVB Housing Bureau via EventConnect. Teams that do not book through this system will be required to pay a $500 buyout to participate in the tournament. If you are not staying in a hotel, you will not be charged the buyout fee. 

All reservations must be made through the FMCVB Online Housing System. Tournament rates will not be available for reservations made directly with hotels.

Fargo Area Sports and the FMCVB have selected a variety of hotels at multiple locations and price points, ensuring every visiting team can find accommodations suitable for their families.

Team Managers/Coordinators: Please follow the instructions in the link above to set up your team’s room block. Be sure to read and understand the terms of the hotel contract, including cancellation policies. Fargo Area Sports is not responsible for hotel contracts, and all teams must adhere to the hotel’s terms and conditions. Please share this information with your team to avoid surprises.

After registering for the tournament, out-of-town teams are required to secure their hotel rooms through the Fargo-Moorhead Housing Bureau. The Housing Bureau acts as a personal reservation service, providing a one-stop-shop for all teams to ensure quality accommodations and reduce last-minute searches for available rooms. Please note that hotel availability is first-come, first-served, and popular hotels may fill quickly.

Once a team manager or representative submits their online application, the team will receive preliminary acceptance into the tournament. They will then be directed to the hotel link, where they can view available hotels, access hotel details, and request a room block.

Tournament Refund Policy

If the tournament is canceled due to inclement weather prior to the start of the tournament, each team will receive a full refund, minus a $50.00 administrative fee. If a tournament is canceled once tournament play has begun, refunds will be granted based upon the graduating scale below. 

NOTE: Any game that has started is considered to be a full and complete game for refund purposes. 

GAMES PLAYED

Once brackets are finalized, an administrative fee of $50.00 may be charged if you drop out of the tournament or would like to request a different skill/age division. If your team withdraws within 7 days from the start of the tournament, there will be no refunds issued.
