I take it back.....

OK, I take back what I said about seeming to not have the problem with poorly covered balls, that I noticed last year.

Just finished a 3 day tournament and the balls (Diamond High Flyer) were absolutely terrible. Starting with new balls had to retire at least 2 or three per game.

Last year when we were having troubles, I thought part of the reason was that the quad fields had a lot of cement around them.

This past weekend, the fields were converted 90' baseball fields with a lot of grass between the foul lines and the fences as well as behind home plate. Consequently way fewer balls went out of play than I see when playing at the typical softball complex.
