The NFCA moves our annual event across the country and Nevada is as close as we'll get to your region for a few years. We know it can be a challenge for high school, travel ball, and youth coaches to travel across the country each year to attend our National Convention so we want to make it affordable for you to attend this year! Please help "spread the word" in your region by sharing the 'surrounding states' special pricing information to any "grassroots coach" who may be interested in attending.

The National Fastpitch Coaches Association DOES NOT work with any housing bureaus or companies that contact our members, attendees or exhibitor partners directly. Unfortunately, we have become aware that there are some companies pretending to be the “official” NFCA housing company/bureau, promising to offer special non-refundable rates at NFCA Convention hotels and requesting credit card information. Please know that any contact directly by a housing company/bureau/hotel group should be considered a scam. If you receive contact from a company/bureau/hotel group offering you hotel discounts or options, please notify our office at (502) 409-4600 immediately and provide us with the name and contact information for the individual or group that contacted you, if possible. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the Convention.
