Williamsburg Virginia hosts the National Softball Association Class B Eastern World Series Youth Fast Pitch Tournament.

Approximately 144 teams from nearly a dozen states are expected in the area starting today for this high profile event.

This is supposed to be the largest sporting event in the history of the Williamsburg area.

Sports Williamsburg, the Greater Williamsburg Chamber and Tourism Alliance and surrounding towns helped secure venues for the event.

The economic impact from the NSA event could exceed $3 million in revenue to the area.

There will be over 3000 athletes and their families staying in our Williamsburg destination for a week.

One thing that is different about girls sports than boys sports are: Girls spend money. They are going to New Town, restaurants and outlets.

The Tournament will feature 10 and under to 18 and under teams and spread out over many juridsications throughout the Historic Triangle.
