Politics as usual
Sad.........AFA had a pretty good following on the Gulf Coast of Texas and Oklahoma (both ASA strongholds). Many ASA resgistered teams played in the AFA qualifiers here just in case they did not get qualify for the ASA championships.
It was a beneficial symbiotic relationship between the two.
As is usual in the creation of competing organizations.........egos and politics of the individuals at the top get in the way of the big picture.
I have fond memories of the old AFA group. Glen umpired in one of the National tournaments that one of my daughters played in.
Lately it has just come become more diluted..........(which I am sure he will admit).
