| March 2, 2023 AJC | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 5gg spring championships Nickname, for 60's and younger divisions the only tournament that im aware of that starts on Thursday is the Worlds. The rest have not changed and still start on Friday. It changed around 5 years ago and we were not too excited about having to take an extra day off. But now we can appreciate having a little more down time rather than sitting at the ball park all day starting at 7am. |
| Jan. 27, 2023 AJC | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: 4 game tournaments SKings, those are actually USSSA senior tournaments and are done in 1 day ( you would know this since your one of the directors). Those are run well and all scores are posted. Nor Cal ( NCSSA ) are 5 game , 6 team brackets played in the Round Robin format. Those also have all scores posted. |
| Jan. 27, 2023 AJC | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Proton Sports Top Gun Tournament Thats cause they aren't posted. For whatever reason they dont bother to fill in brackets with results anymore. Now the best that you get is the top 3 in each posted on the tournament page, seeding and brackets results are non existent. |
| Jan. 23, 2023 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: First two days scores from Bullhead. Exactly Dbax. Its gotten worse the last year. Most tournaments are not filled in anymore. |
| Jan. 22, 2023 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 4 Game or 5 Game Guarantee?? Have we gotten used to 5gg, yes. Spoiled, no. Most all of the tournaments we went to in the past were 2gg ( DE ) but those were normally played in 1 day and did not require flights, 3 nights of hotels, 4 days of car rentals, 2 days off of work. All im saying if necessary, raise the entry fee. We are already paying a lot more for the same game, now were going to pay a lot more for less ? This is not to bash SSUSA, im a big fan of theirs and believe they do a very good job in putting tournaments together for all of us to play. The only thing in the past that id like to have done better is to have scores posted from tournaments, but have never posted that as others have and nothing has changed. Hopefully if this change is going to happen for smaller brackets they can fit them in in 2 days instead of dragging them out over 3 days. Rob, theres a big difference in complaining vs. voicing there personal view. |
| Jan. 20, 2023 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 4 Game or 5 Game Guarantee?? Personally i think going to a 4 gg from the usual 5 gg will not be well received. As you stated Tim, the cost to fly, hotel costs and rental cars, food have all gone up. It can make the difference for teams to attend or not. Raise the fees to whats necessary and teams will make up their mind whether to attend or not. |

| Dec. 13, 2022 AJC | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: looking for 65 AAA or Major Team near eastern PA (Doylestown) Z Man, im fairly certain that Salvador would not be eligible to play on a 65AA team if he is rated 60 major. |

| Nov. 30, 2022 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Team Reclassifications Coop, i understand where you're coming from when you say that a team after winning the Worlds in Vegas should have a chance to defend their championship but Id have to disagree. I feel if a team wins the biggest tournament of the year, they should absolutely be moved up to the next level. As far as how many teams should get the bump, ill trust SSUSA to do whats right. There will always be disagreements from teams that get bumped that did not win but had a good tournament and finished 2nd , 3rd , etc. |
| Nov. 30, 2022 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Radisson Airport Hotel Phoenix, Winter Worlds Mark, as you know, our team also stayed there last weekend. I just checked my credit card statement and it was correct. I appreciate the heads up cause i normally do not check it. Ill send out a message to the rest of our guys to have them check as well. Im glad you got it resolved! |
| Nov. 8, 2022 AJC | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Phoenix Winter Worlds 2022 Bennar, it will posted above in the Priority post and also on the Tournament page. Most likely later today, possibly tomorrow. |
| Oct. 28, 2022 AJC | Topic: Bats Discussion: BATS I should add, 1 of the guys is on our team. The good news is he got it replaced. The bad news is they sent him the same bat as a replacement which he still has because hes afraid to use it. |
| Oct. 28, 2022 AJC | Topic: Bats Discussion: BATS Gary, i believe it was 2019 when Dudley came out with the Hot W. I know a handful of guys who had the same issue with the bat. It was cracking in 30 - 50 swings. |
| Oct. 17, 2022 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Courtesy Runner Rule Question Mays batting 7th and Bonds hitting 11th ? Lol. As long as the players are listed for that game on the lineup card as subs, they are good to run ( once an inning). Stick, a player as far as i know can run for another player then come to bat in the same inning ( of course as long as hes not on base when his turn to hit comes up ) and run for himself. |

| May 3, 2022 AJC | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Update My Registration Hi Nancy, hope your doing well ! Ive never had a problem getting thru to someone in the office. I usually call around 9 west coast time. Im not sure how late they are working these days so i avoid calling in the afternoon. |
