| Dec. 1, 2014 garyheifner 649 posts | Tournament Balls In the spirit of the staff post re: game balls. Remember, when you are flying to ring tournaments you have limited space in your ball bag. One of the really "BAD" perks of getting knocked out of ring tournaments early is that you accumulate a stock pile of new balls. Being sure that we will use the Stote in Vegas and want more than the 6 you get, I bring 3 brand new ones and 3 like new. Get there and they are using the Rock. Assuming SSUSA has switched to the Rock, I bring 3 new and 3 like new Rocks to Ft. Meyers and they are using the Stote. Staff, can you post what kind of ball will be used in future ring championship tournaments. |

| Dec. 2, 2014 curveball Men's 65 705 posts | SSUSA uses the Rock at the SW's and the World Championships both played in Vegas. All other tournaments the Stote is the official game ball. (Texas and Florida Half Century Balls are also legal for tournaments other than the Vegas tournaments. Described by Sacramento as a Stote with a different cover) |
| Dec. 2, 2014 softball4b Men's 70 1248 posts | Jdub, I think you mean 2016. I fully expect there to be ONE ball next year, STOTE only except for the World Championship. All other tourney SSUSA Stote. |
