USSSA/PONY Differences

[ASA/NYSSOBLUE]

Our local group, which does both ASA and PONY tournaments, is doing a USSSA 14U tourney in July - anywhere we can find a chart with the differences? Or are they real miniscule? Thanks in advance!

2006 FP Rule Differences

BOTH UNOFFICIAL

Check with the UIC of the tourney, to be sure the region or tournament doesn't have their own adaptations, or a list they want used.

Thanks - a real big help! The link has been forewarded to all of the people scheduled....

I do like how USSSA puts the tournament brackets up online....

Another "lineup" diff, USSSA same player can be CR for either pitcher or catcher, but not in same inning.

That actually makes sense, as most tournament rosters do not have a whole lot of 'extra' people on them....

Funny story on the CR: I had the same JV team four times this year, and the coach had one kid who was essentially his 'designated' CR, so by the third game, when his C got on base I was calling time almost when she reached, and announcing his CR with the number to the other bench :"#5, CR for the C". By the FOURTH game I was putting the kid on my lineup card before the game started....
