2023 Major World Series Bracket:
*highlighted #s indicates major teams*
Out of 19 Conference tournaments held in 2023, Major teams won 17 of 19. Statistics and numbers can show patterns and consistency, but we know with slowpitch softball, ANYTHING is possible. We’ve seen it several times in the past when Team 24/Monsta won the women’s major 4 years in a row and in most of those years, they were not leading in tournament wins or considered the “top dog”. It goes to show, they are noted as a team that perform best when it counts most.

Smash It/Derby Girls/Rawlings was the obvious powerhouse of the 2023 conference regular season with an overall record of 58-15. The 2022 reigning women’s major champions continue to lead in almost every stat category across the board and have come out on top in 7 conference tournaments this year.
La Famiglia/Fat Angelo’s/GTL/Worth is right behind Derby Girls with 6 conference tournament wins and an overall record of 56-21. Something that stands out about La Famiglia that we can’t avoid… they are also a team that is familiar to world title games. La Famiglia has won world titles in previous years and performs well in the big dance.
Last year, Classic Glass/Nitro Circus/Rawlings walked away with 2nd place finish in the women’s major world series tournament, falling to Smash It/Derby Girls in the championship game. They have placed in the top 5 in all but one conference event this year and hold an overall record of 43-21.
You must keep Lady SNI/DeMarini/D1 on your radar. They are a team that always puts up a good fight in the world series tournament. With a 3rd place finish in 2022 and 2nd place finish in 2021, they are hungry for a title. In 2023, they had a great start placing top 5 in their first 8 tournaments but have since fallen short of the mark the past few tournaments. Their overall record in 2023 is 34-21
Smash It/Incognito, although hasn’t been on the board with any conference tournament wins in 2023, they are still a force to be reckoned with. In 2022, they won the “A” world series title and placed 2nd in “AA”, so again, are very familiar with world title games and the pressure that comes with it. They have an overall record of 22-18.
