2020, anyone?

Thanks for the clarification, Steve, I kinda thought that something like that went on. The whole thing rang of whiney so cal coach sniveling, which everyone knows can be quite boistrous. Its still concerning a little.

It will be interesting to watch this latest So Cal drama unfold. I'm sure the meeting will have a different flavor and tone this year lol!

Maybe they need to move the tourney until they have the correct facilities.

IIRC, the Gold division came out of similar whining about the 18U A division.

BTW, Steve's comments point out that there are two things that are a problem with the OKC facility for running a large national tournament: climate and size of the facility. ASA may not be able to do much about the climate (maybe hold the tournament in San Diego and see how they like THAT climate in August...), but if the facility is too small, they should not continue to try to force fit it. Work a deal with some other fields in the area (upgrading them to ASA Championship standards if need be), or build more fields. But, it would appear those complaining do have a point if they are trying to hold a 64 team DE tournament with pool play on 4 fields.
