March 29, 2023 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Fields I’m sorry didn’t make myself clear this for the Southwest Championship in Las Vegas for Apri again I apologize |
March 29, 2023 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Fields I know it still pretty early but just asking when field assignments for age groups might be posted. Thank You |
March 25, 2023 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Cancellation of Tournaments due to weather Clearly there is no winner on either side. Because of expenses every team that went lost money and I’m sure SSUSA did also. Our team was one of the 11 teams that opted out. We did our homework on the weather forecast and it all came out the same not good. A friend of the team that lives in St George said no way would we play. I think the failure here was neither side took the weather forecast seriously. Yea we’ll lose our entry fee but the way the weather has been lately we will be more aware. Because of the expenses of traveling is first priority the weather forecast seems to be put on the back burner |
March 20, 2023 sdc | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Notice on changes to Spring Worlds Session #2 due to rain forecast Not much you can do about the weather Hope the tournament goes well. Funny I posted that my friends team canceled then a little later our manager notified our team that we were opting out. What can you do |
March 18, 2023 sdc | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Notice on changes to Spring Worlds Session #2 due to rain forecast To bad about the weather. Good luck be safe. My friend just called me his team voted today not to go to Mesquite and they were already registered |
Feb. 21, 2023 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Vote Outcome Fiest thanks SSUSA for doing the survey. It shows you care about the thoughts of the players and teams . It will be a decision that has to be looked at carefully. My question is with Mesquite so close will it just go as posted fee wise and the 4 game guarantee . Again Thanks |
Feb. 7, 2023 sdc | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 4 game guarantees in 2023? Yes i agree the new format and the expense of traveling will be tough on everyone including SSUSA . My friends Scrapiron team just disbanded because of the changes and cost of traveling hope it's not a trend. Just have to see how it goes during the year |
Jan. 15, 2022 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Ratings Any time frame when the next list of team ratings will come out ? Thank You |
Nov. 24, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Ratings After watching 70 AAA in Phoenix I I have been surprised that a couple of teams that played have been able to stay down. Not complaining because SSUSA does a good job at watching this. I thought one team would be moved up just curiious SSUSA does a good job running tournaments and watching everything else not an easy job takes a lot of work |
Aug. 13, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rocky Mountains Whoa slow down just asked a question you didn't,need to answer it if you didn't want to Kindness goes a long way |
Aug. 13, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rocky Mountains Sorry to bug you again about the schedule being posted just working on travel arrangements. Thank You |
Aug. 11, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rocky Mountains When will schedule be posted |
Aug. 7, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rocky Mountains When will team list be posted thank you |
June 21, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: RATING CHANGE How long does the process take once you submit all the paperwork to trying to get your team to get a new rating? |
March 11, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: LVSSA So LVSSA and SSUSA divorce I agree with softball4b I do not care. As in most splits neither side can let it go. One side posted something on Facebook so the other side has to respond. Now teams, players choose sides and there are good and bad comments made on both sides. In a split there is always enough blame to go around. Just as in players and umps friction can occur. For me there are some umps I would hope they never ump our games but you play and move on why say anything. If a ump was truthful there are some teams they would rather not ump but they do an move on. LVSSA and SSUSA the split is done MOVE ON. Tourneys are still being played so what has changed. |
Feb. 2, 2021 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: St George and Vegas I didn't realize that the Spring Worlds and the Southwest tourney were only 2 weeks apart. Money wise and trying to get time off if they work could be tough for some teams having to book 2 trips at one time. Not complaining but for a team like ours we will have to choose which one we go to. I know USSSA has to take what time they can. Too bad it didn't work out this year we were looking forward to playing both |
Oct. 11, 2020 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: TEAMS MOVING UP Other than the teams that won the WORLDS how will other teams be moved up or will this year be seen as a wash. Just asking because of Phoenix coming up |
Aug. 17, 2020 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: WESTERNS I am glad there were no issues with players or spectators and I do not fault the people that I saw seeking shade it was hot I would rather see that then someone getting ill in all I thought the tournament went well |
Aug. 16, 2020 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: WESTERNS Well finally got to play a tournament in St George. Where we played the Umpires did a great job with the covid guidelines. They made sure we all followed the rules. Mask rules changed first couple of days but nothing major. One thing I saw that will always be a problem is social distancing. Yes it was HOT!!!. Everyone was seeking shade. We saw 25 to 30 players and spectators sharing shade elbow to elbow with and with out masks. Wives were sitting next to entrance of the dugout to get shade. Not complaining just saying social distancing will always be one of those things that will be hard to control at any event then add the heat makes it harder just an observation |
Aug. 6, 2020 sdc | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Las Vegas Thanks for the info don’t really know everything about where he is playing but he is pretty young you guys have tough job thanks for all you do to keep us playing SSUSA |
