History
2008 will start the 6th year of the Triple Crown Sparkler tournament. In 2007, 430 teams participated in 14U, 16U, and 18U. Once again we held the Showcase All-Star games each evening with over 1600 girls participating. All-Americans were then selected and showcased Friday evening including our TV game with the "best of the best" that aired all across the country. 2007 also saw the first year of our Sparkler Opening Ceremonies Concert featuring the All-America Rejects with our Sparkler Idols opening for the band. Teams in attendance were displayed prior to the concert and had the time of their lives.
Event Testimonials
"Our organization has really enjoyed the great job you guys do with the Sparkler tournament each year and truely appreciate the enormous benefit it provides our young ladies. I know my oldest daughter, Samantha, found her college through last years tournament and we can't be happier for her."

"I just want to let everyone know what a first class event that the Sparkler was this year. Not only did I enjoy the competition, but the atmosphere around the All-star games was terrific and the All-American Rejects concert was excellent. So often my daughters have sacrificed fun activities like the concert to play softball and to have an act like that combined with the tournament make it that much more memorable for my whole family. We enjoyed the entire experience of the Colorado Sparkler. I will reccomend this tournament to any one who asks and hope to return again next year."
