Doug, you have been an inspiration to so many players, coaches, SSUSA and softball in general. You will be missed by so many that have had the pleasure of playing for you and working with you as a director! You took me under your wing and taught me the ins and outs of being a good director, teaching me art of being fair, honest and keeping a cool head! Worked most of the time! While this was a hard decision but in the end your health, family and spending time with the grand kids is most important. I wish you good luck in the future, good health and God Bless!

Your friend, Win

Dave,
Some things/people wants vs needs never change!! I remember once way back in 2006 when we were scheduled to play at BLD & were moved all the way to Shadow Rock! Now, that was a real hardship!!
Thanks for your never ending hard work!!! Win

Are there going to be concessions at Sunset for session #2? I thought I saw somewhere there was not. Thanks for the clarification. Old guys get hungry!!!

Discussion: Team Names and Rating

I find that is easier to make a copy of the teams in your division, go to ratings page, and it is easy because both lists are in alphabetical order. Then all u have to do is find the team name, their rating & mark beside your list.

JMHO

Tim, sorry you have to deal with all that stuff! As a manager I don't even think about committing to a tournament until I have 13+ solid commits! I know us 70s have an advantage because most of us don't work, but come on, you have to know BEFORE you enter a tournament. JMHO! Good luck & take care, Win

Ron, the rules are relaxed for this year. They will allow you to pickup a player to use one time without a release. If the player decides to stay with the new team, then he will need to be released by his current team.
I only need him for the Masters if i can get him on my roster.

Thanks, Win

Dbax: this is posted on the Masters tournament page to allow teams to add players who have not been able to play in a qualifier. We have not played since Bullhead in Jan.I have requested exemptions & am waiting for response.


Hardship Requests for WMC
Teams that have difficulty qualifying all of their players for their World Masters Championships roster – or have significant difficulties playing in a Qualifier – may be granted exemptions, according to SSUSA.

The exemptions will be granted on an individual basis depending on the hardship. The exemptions must be requested in writing to info@seniorsoftball.com and include the entire roster of players expected to attend the WMC.
