About Us
Welcome to Let's Play 4 U!
Let’s Play 4 U and Education Through Athletics represent “The Why” of its management team to create high quality, competitive and creative events in girls Fastpitch softball in the Midwest. It is far more than one person, but rather a blending of an amazing family of friends/family that conduct every event as if each of us were playing in the event. By creating and follow processes and decisions with that sole incentive; we can assure every athlete, family, program, umpire and college coach; with a consistent and valued experience.
“The compelling higher purpose that inspires us and acts as the source of all we do.” Simon Sinek

LP4U Tournaments
The goal is to provide the greater Midwest Region with opportunities for high level, competitive, meaningful events. We consistently provide the strongest of programs the chance to compete with like teams from across 12-14 states, and at the same time, provide entry points for the unknown or developing programs to “dip their toes in the water” and grow and compete with stronger teams. Many of our events used tiered brackets to assure college coaches the most competitive match-ups, and allows for those teams not “locked into the powerhouse category” to earn their way into the prime games and championships. It’s a fine line to support a market split from established and consistently at the top vs. those teams and programs building and needing opportunities to establish themselves with the colleges.
PGF Tournaments by LP4U
We have been fortunate and honored to host the PGF National Qualifiers in June and to be given the responsibility to build the PGF Midwest Regional Championship over the last 10 years in July. These events allow us to provide the same consistent quality expectations as LP4U, provide teams from across the country to come into the Midwest and explore the competitiveness and quality of PGF competition at a reasonable cost and great overall value.
LP4U Camps
Welcome to LP4U Camps, where we combine the great sport of girls fast-pitch softball in competitive events as well as many opportunities to work with college coaches from all levels of the collegiate world. Our camps are focused on allowing the student athlete to interact with the coaches in game situations and to have hands on instruction By coming together and becoming a team member for the event with other players, the athlete learns how to work with new team members, as well as understands what it takes to be prepared as a potential collegiate player. When coming to events, our camps assure each camper works with 15-20 coaches over several hours, something they cannot be assured of during a normal tourney weekend.
