Where are you headed, Dave?

Apologies if you have already mentioned on another thread...I just don't recall.

I hope they let you call at Botetourt. That field is softball heaven. Took my breath away when I first saw it.

Glad to see you got your breath back, but why?

The mountains rise up and look like they're almost within your reach, and the parking lot around the complex is set below the fields so you don't see any cars.

An absolutely beautiful and perfectly-maintained complex.

Waxing philisophically, it is not what you bring to Nationals that counts, it is what you bring back.:cool:

If you are going to Chattanooga, you may want to bring extra uniforms and some No-Doz

Ron Ronaganda just announced during a press box interview today that he was just told there will be at least 172 teams at the 16Us.

That is a pretty decent size tournament for a National.

derwil Sat Jul 23, 2011 09:17pm
89 teams registered for 12U. We will be getting the 16Us next year...sounds like fun!!

ronald Sat Jul 23, 2011 10:28pm

Ronald

At least 172 teams? That's awesome! Wish I could be there to watch...

Softball, softball, all around you! :)

Baby rash ointment used from from day/game 1 is the best IMO. As for the national the best thing I found to bring was a map to the local fluff and fold.
