Discussion: How do the other major teams feel about major and major plus in western national

I really enjoy playing senior softball and truely hope they can figure this out ASAP. I was reading on another site the 40's are just as upset as the 50's and they not going to Fresno. They are going to have their own states with a lower entry fee and a much better prize package. It will also be at a nice venue, I can't see SSUSA allowing teams to leave them without trying to fix the problems of combined brackets and the Major Plus teams and prize packages.
I would like to hear back from someone in the office about these issues prior to the deadline for the Fresno tournament.

I think the first issue at this time is the combining of divisions. Once we resolve that issue then we can start moving forward on player or team rankings. We need to start somewhere and right now in the West or Norcal this is a big issue. We got 4 to 5 50 major teams that arent going to continue to play if they combine the brackets, now you only have the 2 or 3 50 major plus teams and 2 or 3 50 major teams. This doesnt sound like a good ideal. Also if you can hit an HR at will then play Major+. If your playing AAA you shouldnt be there or you need some bat control, hitting a opp field HR sounds like you have some pop. Really anybody can hit HR's, allowing power hitters to swing away everytime isnt right, they will continue to hit singles all day.

Tate 22 I played againist marododis back then and yes they were very good but their was only one national tournament everybody loaded up that one tourney. Things have changed such as are age and the associations and the number of ring touranments. If we played just one national or ring tournament a year it would be different, the cost to play these types of touranments are not cheap with travel and with all the other expenses.

Yes in vacaville. Very low maintenance or grounds keeping during the day. I never once seen them water the fields in 2 todays with a 20-30 mph winds.

Discussion: patch field

The fields weren't very good. I do know that there were 3 great fields in Yuba City that were available. YC is about 40 minutes northwest of Woodland. Do they choose parks like Patch because of low cost?

I agree with you Tim. I will be asking our coach to do the same. I believe if I am going to be playing for a ring I should be playing againist a fair and level field of competition. I don't believe that the out come should be effected by factors such as early losses to a major+ team. It's sound like some of the major teams never even played a major+ team.
