Discussion: Re-ratings at Vegas Worlds

What is significant about the June 15 date?

Must a Team Play at their higher rating before appeal?

Discussion: 50 Vegas worlds 2022


Player played in Qualifying events both 55 Major and 60 major in 2022. Both of his teams are not playing Worlds.He was allowed to Roster for Worlds with a different 60 M team that has it's full allotment of players (not less than 12) that he did not qualify with. By playing 55M all season is also not the same skill level as 60M.

I understand rules and they are strict as they should be,as long as they are applied equally"across the board"

As with everything else there are always Shenanagins and rules are "made to be broken". I guess...

Discussion: Am i wrong to think this way

I own a WORTH Titan U-trip bat that is as hot as any Senior bat.When I started playing Senior ball I didn't want to buy a Senior bat because of the no warranty. I used this bat playing 50 thru 60 but stop using it at 60 because of all the "bat is shaved comments"from Players and teams. Just wanted to avoid the drama of defending the bat and myself (Character). Bat is stock, bought brand new from Worth. I would have not allowed it to be confiscated cause I know it's not altered but, would have been suspended for not doing so and lose a great bat too. So I Bought and use a senior bat. Which is still not as hot as the Titan! I still have the bat and just use it for batting practice sometimes. Bat is a beast. Must has 5-6000 swings on it. (stick8 knows this bat)

All that said the disparity in what is deemed as"shaved"or illegal by the untrained eye of a player, Director or association is huge.

My opinion on banning a Player should by a "FOREVER" ban not, 5 years.Once a cheater in 5 years you'll (sic) still be a cheater.

Discussion: Player ranking

OK Dave.Our team was bumped to Major Plus due to our finish at the Worlds. We sucsessfully Appealed and the team moved back and allowed to Play Major. Should all Player ratings on our Team now be Major per the appeal? Full transaparency> I called the office and was told that my rating is M+ for 2 years. Which I understand as per normal but how does this relate per successful appeal of bump up?

Thanks

Discussion: Batting out of order

Respectfully disagree .Wouldn't Technically the batting order HITTER is the recorded out? The out was because he could not hit in his batting order position. Not because he was a courtesy runner. Also Not sure why he could be the first batter of the next inning when in fact "technically" he was the last (batter) out of the previous inning.

Discussion: Turf Shoes for Plantar Fascitis

YEP OZ40 is right on!! If you don't buy new shoes every season at minimum change the insoles. I learned all of this the hard way but avoided surgery by "trying" the heel seat insole just to see if the hype was real and now back in the outfield and walking and running without pain.

Discussion: Turf Shoes for Plantar Fascitis

These Work for me. I Suggested to others and worked for them as well.I highly recommend.
Buy the original not the gel. The gel moves while the original stays firm to the arch. Wear everyday in all of my shoes not just softball shoe. Avoid Boombah shoe (I wear 3N2) and avoid wearing sandals. Sandals offer no support to the foot or achilles.I would wear these in any softball shoe regardless of Brand.No off the shelf softball shoe on the market offers support for Plantar fasciitis.If you Buy a new pair of shoes buy or add an insert of some sort. All you get is a flat piece of foam that does nothing to support the foot.

Discussion: Bumped up teams

Not my intent to intrude on this but are the East and West nationals now "move up" Tournaments ? or were these move ups already imminent due to other criteria.

"automatic move" championships in a bracket of more than five teams ... Those three tournaments are ...

1. The LVSSA/SSUSA World Masters in Las Vegas;
2. The SPA World Championships in Dalton, GA; and
3. The ISA Senior World Series in Columbus, IN

Not certain I agree with door#2. I'd be more inclined to go with door #1. With door number 2 we're giving the out but allowing the previous batter to occupy second base?? The rule reads "no substitute or courtesy runner".

For clarity 5th batter in lineup made last out of inning but for whatever reason can't run and by rule is called out. So we have an out and the 4th batter in lineup is allowed at 2nd base??? In my opinion That's not the rule. I'd have an out with no runner at 2ND.
