Discussion: San Diego

We split the 55s into two brackets as there were ten AAA teams. The Marauders won one at 5-0 and Top Gun won the other at 4-0. Generally the games were close.

We played the older guys and women in Escondido (north San Diego County). Lack of fields forced us to move the 50-55s to Menifee. We continue to work to get a San Diego locale so teams can enjoy the amenities but fields are lousy and difficult to obtain.

Discussion: Team Ratings

I play with DMAC and nothing we have done on the field justifies our elevation to major. We have had a ghastly run of illness and injury luck and we are still weeks away from putting our full team on the field for the first time this year. There are a handful of teams who are politically active. The push to get the lowest classification they can, and then lobby to get rid of everyone in that division they think they can't bet. I'm sure that's what happened to us. My solution? Put every sanctioned tournament game in a database and let performance on the field determine ratings. You could develop metrics to determine when a team goes up or down. Bottom line for us though, is that we can compete as a major when the team returns to health.
