Discussion: Scrap Iron Club looking to build new 70 and 75 teams

1goat...Hi Howard and thanks for the invitation to join your 75AAA team in SoCal. I appreciate the offer, however I plan on joining the Scrap Iron 80's Major team out of Denver...since SSUSA changed the age requirements BACK to the 2022 rules I would be eligible to play. We will play in Phoenix in the Winter Worlds as an exhibition team as they want to rate us as a MajorPlus 80's. Not sure that will pan out..and if not I will call you. Thanks again and have a great 2024 Season!...Bob Darrah 813-545-2483 or rdarrah9188@gmail.com

JB Texas....Hi John...this is Bob Darrah..AKA Spider. I wanted to get back to you and thank you for the very kind offer to join the San Antonio Silver Streaks 75's. I have decided to go with the Scrap Iron 80's Major Plus team for 2024. As you know, SSUSA changed the age requirements BACK to the original rules in 2022 allowing 3 78 year old players and 4 79 year old players to participate in the 80 Division. We will be playing in Phoenix as I am sure you will as well...I will try and 'find the Silver Streaks' and stop by and say hello. Wishing you, your family and the Silver Streaks all the best!
