If you need a PLAYER!! Pick him up. Could be the tournament MVP. Saw him play in barberton and columbus, definitely MVP caliber.

Sylvania, ohio has a couple of sr leagues and five or six travel teams which play around five tournaments per year.
They also host their own tournament...the original Great Lakes classic in July/august which draws 50+ teams.
Top notch organization , check it out.
No, i am not affiliated with sylvania just familiar with their organization.

Discussion: Looking 75 age group

Cy:
just wanted to hitchhike.
I run probably one of the highest attended 75 and 80 team tournaments in senior softball, so i am familiar with most of the teams.
Just wanted to qualify my opinion that you could not find a better oganized and quality manager in senior softball and especially the 75’s than Joe Bush.
Monkey Joe’s is always one of the most competitive teams in the 75 division and definitely one of the best organized.
The team does not only have good players but also good team mates.
You should definitely contact JOE, you will not be sorry..

Discussion: I Believe!

This is not an unusual happening as our departed loved ones and angels have numerous ways to communicate with us.
One is the ringing phone and when you answer nobody is there and there is no traceable number. Another is finding of coins on the floor, on a table, etc in your house. Someone once told me to check the date of the coin you found, it may have a message.
Your loved ones and angels appear to you all the time as a stranger without you knowing it. It may be as a child, as an adult, as a male or a female, it may be as a warm breeze across your face, a smile from a stranger or a greeting from a stranger.
There are angels among us.
Certain messages are relayed to you by a favorite song you haven't heard in many,many years or an old movie you saw on TV that only came to your mind the night before..there are many ways of communicating
The best is prayer..do not play down the power of prayer. It is powerful. I can attest to that and also to angels without either I would not be here today.
I am also not a minister or officer of a church but I do believe and I just wanted to confirm for your wife her father was calling to say,"Hi and I am with you always."

Discussion: cortisone shot

For what it is worth, here is what my surgeon told me.
“If you use your shoulder a lot at work lifting etc, i will give you the shots until we can dete mine what the problem is. Cortisone only eliminate the pain and does not correct the problem,”
How good is my doctor?
He was recommended to me by the biggest malpractice lawyer in the state, who told me who sues the quacks and this is the doctor he used on his shoulder.
It may not be a cuff problem. I had one tendon completely severed and another hanging by a thread. That is what over 3,000 softball games do to you.
Had an operation (2 hour) and six month therapy. Everything is fine now and back swinging the bat with no pain (left shoulder).
The bottom line is the cortisone shots will eliminate the pain but not the cause. Suggest you see a doctor and get his opinion..make sure it is an orthopedic surgeon.
Hope this helps.

Discussion: NORTHEAST CHAMPIONSHIPS SESSION 1 RESULTS

Shark:
Nice job of getting games in and scores out with a 50+ turnout for the tournament.
Getting the results of eight division winners out the next day with one director proves a point:
If you have a tournament and tournament director who takes a genuine interest in his tournament and the teams attending, he will make the effort to get the results out quickly,'If not, you will wait until Hell freezes over for results.
I hope SSUSA teams take notice of your well run and team/player friendly tournament and pack the place in 2018.
Nice job and thanks for the results.

Discussion: Changing Format for 70 Year Old Division

We used to do the double elimination tournament and found we also were having 70+ teams playing four games a day. We switched to a three-day round robin format in which teams play six different AA/AAA teams (two games a day).
It seems to be very popular.
For Thee Buckeye Classic this year we have TEN 80's,TWENTY 75's and SEVENTEEN 70's which has been pretty normal. This is just a regular regional tournament not a national or world event.
We also allow teams if we have open fields on the first two days and they want to switch one of their third day game to it and their opponewnt agrres we will do so. But NEVER MORE than THREE games a day.
It works for us. 80's only play 80's; 75's play 75's and 70's play 70's all AA or AAA teams. We do have a 75 Major bracket (play each other twice) because it is difficult for 75 Major teams to find a 75M tournament.
Teams also know their schedule for all six games at least one week in advance and the teams entered list is posred daily on our web site.
We are filled for this year.

Discussion: and ideas concerning "where to place teams in tournaments"

Best solution is do not invite majors unless you have four. We have 92 teams at Thee Buckeye Classic with only FOUR MAJORS in the 75...figured they probably couldn't find a tournament they could play unless we set it up.
Equalizers do not favor the lower team. It is like giving 70% handicap in a bolwing league. You aren't giving anything you are keeping 30 %.
That said, I appreciate your problem SSUSA and SPA is top heavy AAA and low on AA and MAJOR. ISSA is different, you just tell them where you want to be rated and pay your entry fee.
Both SSUSA and SPA need to move more top AAA'S to MAJOR and bottom AAA'S to AA and balance the structure to avoid PERL's situation which is standatd happenings in most senior tournaments.

Discussion: National Senior Games In Birmingham AL

Save your money no team rating,s, everyone the same rating,very little turnout.
Played in Palo Alto a few years ago and the other seven teams in our age group were from md, ny and nj.
Awards are medals.
Huntsman games are five times better. In June there are better Ssusa and spa tournaments. We didn't,t even go to the Cleveland tournament national senior games and it was only 35 Miles away
