COVID-19 Protocols
The current COVID-19 pandemic has altered many daily activities and routines. Our mission to return will be done by taking multiple steps to ensure all programs are in a safe environment to play.
​
We have been in constant dialogue with Kansas City Convention Center, local health departments, and Visit KC to ensure the Triple Crown NIT will be a success, and safe for everyone traveling to KC . Our goal is to keep the format the same as previous years but we will limit team numbers to ensure safety. The steps we are outlining are taken proactively and based on current information. 

Triple Crown will monitor the COVID 19 pandemic as we get closer to the event dates. The extraordinary measures we are taking will ensure every participant the most successful experience possible. We are taking these measures independently and proactively and the measures/protocols could change prior to the event.

EVENT FORMAT

This is an elite (invite only) event. We are currently working through the format for 2021 and will post schematics and flow charts after tournament officials determine the flow for all age groups.  We will only offer 12u - 18u divisions.

~ The NIT does not  use the standard flow of other tournaments ~

2016 EVENT

2017 EVENT

2018 EVENT

2019 EVENT

2020 EVENT
Tournament Seeding: We will use 2020 US Club Rankings, PrepVolleyball.com's pre-season rankings, and any tournament finishes between January 1, 2020 through February 1, 2021. Club Directors will also provide their top 24 picks for their respective age group. After identifying the top 8 teams, who will be considered Number 1 seeds, they will be geographically cross-pooled to assure they play competition from outside of their region. The results of the first 3-4 matches for each team will determine seeding for the power pool or alternate pools for teams who do not qualify. After seeding matches on Saturday, tournament play will begin on Sunday.
