Was a last minute fill in for a 10UB territory in Gadsden, AL. It folded at the last second! Was going to be co-ordinater at the JO 10U-18U SlowPitch, It folded as well! I'm close to Marietta (gold). I may just get to watch this year. |

F.Y.I.
Women's Major FP in Stratford, CT was cancelled due to lack of teams. Maybe it is just me, but I think the higher levels of adult FP are going to follow the path of SP Super and Major and "elite" themselves into extinction. |

Last year's Women's Major (that I was assigned to) also failed due to a lack of teams. The cause (according to teams that were contacted) was that Stratford Brakettes held a "National" caliber tournament, and the teams weren't willing to travel a second time to Auburn, Alabama. The few teams that had signed up for Auburn vowed they wouldn't go to Stratford this year. I guess they followed through (I know of one for sure). |
Quote:
They had four teams and it dropped to two. From what I can gather, the Brakettes and local ASA association are at odds over the format, as if there is much you can do which so few teams. OTOH, the ASA folks in CT have been there for quite a while so I don't know what changed in the last couple years. |
So. National
I just finished the 18u Gold/Class A So. National in Raleigh, NC. Combined between the two divisions there were only 30 teams. They played a two day tournament over a span of four days.

got a call last night ... "hey can you go to College Station (TX) to work the 16U-A?" ... seems they "forgot" 16U-A requires 3 man crews for all bracket games and now they are 20 umpires short.
after being "unselected" from one Nat'l, well, lets just leave it at "no thanks" :-) |

But what do I know? :D |

But if that was your reason for turning them down for the 16U....well, lets say I'm disappointed. You original selection to Killeen may have been what got you the call for the 16U. |
