| Sept. 23, 2023 berger | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: No Tourney shirts for sale during session 2 hitts, my team realized the same problem looking for a shirt at the Russell Road complex, and Arroyo Grande. I, therefore, have several of my players still wanting to buy one. Could you provide the email address?? |
| May 9, 2023 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Wes Weddle Senior Men's Tournament May 20-21 Participating team list is on the SSUSA website's Wes Weddle Classic tournament page: https://www.seniorsoftball.com/?event=1853. We will be working on trying to compress our already-overbooked teams into game schedules later today and tomorrow. |
| May 8, 2023 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Wes Weddle Senior Men's Tournament May 20-21 Guess it would be interesting to know the source of this rumor, or these rumors, because it has not been cancelled. The source could be from some some team, or teams, who were unable to enter the tournament "because we are full" (no room available for any additional teams). But no, the tournament has NOT been cancelled...just the contrary. |
| May 16, 2022 berger | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: You make the call. B.J., I agree with waiting until the batter completes the at bat. Can you clarify; in SSUSA the player would not have been allowed in the game without being listed on the scorecard at the time the game begins? Thanks, |

| July 22, 2021 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Midwest Championships Rogers, AR First, I agree with each of you....the Midwest Championships should (needs to) come back to KC. But, being from the KC area, I "could be" a bit biased. 😊 2nd, creins, there were 4 Arkansas teams "listed" this year. But you are correct on the fact that no team from TN participated. Additionally, the info below does not list a team from TN either - even when the tournament was in KC. Now, a team, or two, from TN could have participated in any one of the non-listed years. Just some figures: 2009 at Mid-America in Shawnee, KS (58 total teams): IL - 15 teams; MI - 11; WI - 11; IN - 5; MO - 5; 3 each from KY, MN and OH; and 1 each from IA and KS 2013 at Mid-America in Shawnee, KS (57 teams): MO - 17 teams; IA - 7; KS - 6; 5 each from MN, IL, and CO; 4 from NE & AR; 2 from WI and 1 each from MI & OK 2016 - 1st year in AR (46 total teams): MO - 16 teams; 5 each from IL, KS, and AR; 4 from OK & NE; IA - 3; and 2 each from TX & MN 2021 - Rogers, AR (37 total teams): MO - 15 teams; TX - 7; OK - 5; 4 each from KS & AR; NE - 2 0 teams anymore from IL, MI, WI, IN, KY, MN, OH, IA, or CO 1 positive note.....the number of teams from TX & OK have increased. |

| Dec. 2, 2020 berger | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Senior League Play with Pitcher using a SCREEN Spider9188, our league in the Kansas City area has used the pitching screen for at least 6 years now. Here are our rules: PITCHING SCREEN. All teams must use the screen. It’s also recommended that pitchers wear protective gear (mask, shin guards and chest protector). 1. The screen will directly face home plate within three to six feet in front of the pitching rubber. 2. The screen must cover a minimum eight inches (i.e., one third) of the width of the pitching rubber. 3. The pitcher cannot “hide” behind the screen and pitch over it; the batter must be able to see the pitched ball, without the screen being in the way, from its release all the way to the strike mat. 4. Any batted ball striking any portion of the screen as observed by the umpire will be declared a dead ball and foul ball. A batter can use up his courtesy foul by hitting the screen but cannot foul out by hitting it. Thrown balls are in play. 5. The screen must be placed to the left of a right-handed pitcher, and to the right of a left-handed pitcher to maximize the pitcher’s safety. 6. Any pitch delivered with the screen not in a legal position will be declared “no pitch.” If a pitcher refuses to place the screen in the correct position, the umpire will notify the player’s manager and remove the pitcher from pitching. If a team’s second pitcher does the same, he will be ejected. |
| Sept. 18, 2020 berger | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 2020 LVSSA/SSUSA World Masters Game Results!! Kudos to LVSSA/SSUSA and whomever is personally responsible, so far, for actually posting the game results of the 2020 LVSSA/SSUSA WORLD MASTERS CHAMPIONSHIPS. Very nice. |
| Sept. 6, 2020 berger | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Pitchers stance and ball presentation B.J., maybe I'm misreading the rule. I read it to say the pitcher's "pivot" foot has to remain in, or in contact with, the pitcher's box -- not just "at least one foot". PITCHING REGULATIONS 6.6 • LEGAL DELIVERY E. The pivot foot must remain in contact with the pitcher's box until the pitched ball leaves the hand. If a step is taken, it can be forward, backward, or to the side, provided the pivot foot is in contact with the pitcher's box and the step is simultaneous with the release of the ball. |
| July 18, 2020 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Wes Weddle ganerman8, I'm going to suggest you get with Randy Rowe - RRR5850@aol.com (tournament director) to address your question. I received my copy of the 65+ schedule on Thursday. |
| July 16, 2020 berger | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Shawnee sdc, yes it is. Just received our team's schedule from Randy Rowe about 10 minutes ago. |
| June 22, 2020 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Tulsa OK-ARK beat KC Kids for the 70's Major title. BlueSpeed AV beat Scrap Iron High Octane in the 65's Major division. Don't know about any of the others. |
| June 12, 2020 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: schedule of game times at 60's Missouri open,june 6&7, won't ever play their again My mistake, I messed up, since I have the Kids 65+, and Kids 70+ team. This was the 70 Major 1. OK-Ark - (from Oklahoma) 2. KC Kids And this was the 65 Major 65 Major 1. Blue Speed (Missouri) 2. KC Kids |

| June 6, 2020 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: COW TOWN CLASSIC - TULSA 6/18-21 I "think" you are really talking about the Oil City Classic in Tulsa for those dates. The Cow Town Classic was scheduled for the first week of April, and it WAS cancelled. |
| April 15, 2020 berger | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Need Clarification Papajoe56, I have been in contact with Will Rogers (tournament director for the Oil City Classic). He claims he is unable to access the SSUSA Message Board, for whatever reason, and has asked that I pass along the following -- from him, to you and any other interested parties. "I never cash checks until tournament time, thus no refund is ever needed. The Oil City IS approved by SSUSA and listed on the web site." If you wish to contact Will directly, his email address is willsharkdaddy@aol.com. His phone number is (816) 916-7891. |
| Oct. 2, 2019 berger | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Team Texas - Outfielder with Heart Condition ?? Great to hear!!
