You don't just go to the Elite 24. You have to win a Super Regional NIT.

We were going to try for the Elite 24, but it was too late in the year and would have had several boys in trouble with the High School fall sports coaches for missing camps and practices.
We are instead going to the AAYBA World Series in Cocoa Beach, FL instead.

When my son was 14U his team qualified for the USSSA Elite 24 in Orlando. It was held at the Disney Wide World of Sports complex, which is also where the Braves hold their spring training. It was a top notch tournament, at an excellent facility, with what we considered the best 14U teams from all over the country. It was a big deal to have won a "Super-NIT" in order to qualify to go. The only down side was that it overlapped with the start of his first high school football season his freshman year.

The WWBA in Marrietta, GA is a very good event with very good teams from all over the country. Also the 14U Battle in the South in Knoxville, TN has a alot of top notch teams attending.
