| Oct. 1, 2009 udaplaya 90 posts | Rather than Major+, Major, AAA..... First of all, it is apparent that with the diversity among people that play softball, no one set of rules will appease everyone. So, thinking outside the box, why not let players choose the rules that they play under, as follows. Each tournament would offer brackets and let the teams choose where they want to play: Unrestricted: 10 year age divisions (50 - 60, 61 - 70) no additional sub-classifications no limit on hrs no limit on runs per inning no ppr no time limit limited to two or three pre-approved balls (brand/model designated) slightly higher entry fees start with 1 - 1 count, no extra foul Restricted: 5 year age divisions no additional sub-classifications current hr rules current runs per innings rules current ppr rule any ball director sees fit, although it will have to be identified in advance slight lower entry fee current balls/strikes rules This way we all know what you are getting before we plop down money for tournament, rooms, travel, etc. |

| Oct. 6, 2009 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | The unrestricted (even ages) is what it used to be like until the senior assn's and leagues tinkered with it. So, udaplaya, you going to be the one to start this going? Not practical for tournaments given the length of time games would take. Could be shortened with a mercy rule. |
| Oct. 6, 2009 Jawood Men's 50 943 posts | Thanks, Gekle. Is your open inning still going? LOL |
| Oct. 6, 2009 Gekle BUilders Men's 50 204 posts | yea were done,unfortunatly a little to soon.Ran out of out fielders Sunday finals.Scored 156 runs Sunday in three games,hit 111 HRS over seven games with team batting average of .767 all for second place.That should be an indicator of what it,s going to take to win this tourney for 50 M+ teams.I think we are all playing for second place to the Mavs. See ya in Phoenix? |
