2009 PSP Phoenix Open - Day 1

Yesterday, we drove the distance between San Diego to Phoenix and arrived to walk the Pro field. Today was the first day of the first PSP event in the 2009 season - PSP Phoenix Open. The PSP makes its return to the University of Phoenix, Glendale Youth Sports Complex, for the second time. Last year, a total of 123 teams traveled to Arizona, but this year, even with the "economic troubles" the entire world seems to be in, the PSP managed to get 143 teams to sign up (up 20 teams from last year).

PRO Race-to-7
What was once known as the "NXL" is now known as the "PRO Race-to-7" (or just the PRO division). Learn more about the changes by visiting this link:
