First day of the season...

[whiskers_ump]

Worked three day NFHS tournament this week. Weather in 30's with high wind, but sun. Sat. was beautiful. Did total of 18 games, six each day. Good tournament.

Have three scheduled this week starting on Mon.

How in hell do you do 6 games a day .
Are they time limit games ?
For me to do six games I would be on the diamond for about 9 to 10 hours .

Games on Thurs. and Most of Fri. 55 mins. drop. POOL

Bracket was 1hr 20 which was some on Fri. and all day Sat. Worked from 8:00 a.m. until after 9:00 p.m.

And you aqre right, you are on the field all day.

Ahhhhh
Still very trying tired day .
On our age grade tournaments we do 4 games a day hour and a half .
Mens Open ,7 innings so we could be on the diamond 2 hours easy each game .
No matter how you try and speed the game up for men they still find other ways to slow it down .
Women again seven innings but usually hour and a half .
Either way I am a reasonably fit guy and am still stuffed after a days softball .
