The Recreational Summit is another one of the prestigious end-of-season events competitors work so hard toward throughout the year, and Varsity TV will have every minute of the action from the Tampa Convention Center in Tampa, Florida!

This event is geared toward recreational competitors and is different than the Youth Summit, which is being held at the same venue April 25-26 for younger All Star athletes.

To be eligible for The Recreational Summit, teams must be affiliated with an organization such as the YMCA, Boys & Girls Club, city/community youth organization Pop Warner Association, or another community-run program. Unaffiliated teams must go through a verification process.
