There may be one USSSA tourney here a year for teams from everywhere to say they've been to Florida. I don't even know if there is one a year. I haven't seen one locally. I guess we aren't part of everywhere.

According to a Dallas Morning News special report on youth baseball organizations I read this past weekend, USSSA Baseball was formed in 1996, sponsors tournaments leading to world series tournaments in ages 6 - 18, and is headquartered in Kissimmee, Florida.

Dave, I did not know that. Thanks for the info. I do know they rarely have tourneys in St. Pete/Clearwater, that I have seen or heard of. A.A.U Florida, out of Lakeland rules the travel ball circuit here. Chet Lemmon runs that group. The summer tourneys are usually sanctioned by I.B.C. (I believe that's International Baseball Congress)
Anyway, since he loves us so much, I was actually being a Smarta$$ to BlueDude and his blanket statement everywhere comment.
