What to know
Liberty Games runs April 30 to May 2, 2027, Friday to Sunday, in Manalapan Township, NJ. Entry is $650 per team with 4 games guaranteed for boys 10U-17U, bracketed at 10U-14U and showcase format at 15U-17U. The host page lists only the street address, 150 Woodward Rd, 07726. The Mid-Atlantic Finals page names that same address MultiSports Kingdom - Manalapan, so that is the venue page we built.
The page says: "All teams and individuals are required to book lodging through Prep Network’s SaveAndPlay platform." Teams driving more than 90 miles must hold 8 rooms across April 30 to May 2.
The page says bookings made outside SaveAndPlay "will require an opt-out form." Prep Network says it approves or denies each request. If it denies yours, you book through SaveAndPlay and pay the $10 per night booking fee.
Eight rooms over 2 nights is 16 room-nights, our calculation. The closest hotel in our list, American Hotel, is 9 minutes by car (5.8 miles), so nobody here walks to the gym from the lobby.
