SKings24...
Thank you. I will definitely check you guys out.
And like you said, I also prefer an outright winner not who has the best record.
And I go to softball tournaments to play softball. Not to hang out and socialize like a bunch of girls. You can do that in the dugout or between games.

Very well said David. That's exactly what I'm hearing as well.
It's tough playing 2-day tournaments and then having to go back to work on Mondays. Where in the 60s I would understand they are primarily retired so 2-day tournaments make way more sense at 60+.

Thank you for getting back to me Don.
To me though it doesn't make financial sense for us players to do the '2-day' tourneys. We spend more money and it's frustrating to numerous players whom I've spoken with. If we stay at a hotel it's more costly. Room cost for 2 nights. Food. Gas. It adds up quickly.
Typically we play only 5 games in these tourneys as well. Could easily be done in 1 day. For 50s Majors and Majors plus 1 day would be more optimum and make more sense. A lot of teams are of the same thought process.

This was my 1st year that I played 50s in NorCal. Obviously I played 40s previously. My question is this...
Why in NorCal do they run 2day 50s tourneys with only 6-8 teams? In 40s there would be double the teams and knock it out in 1day.
Doesn't SSUSA realize how much harder 2day tourneys are on players, teams and family and friends who support us.
Help me to understand why they do this...

I hope a change is being made in the future.
