| Sept. 29, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | WINTER WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS (2016 ROSTER EVENT) Phoenix AZ When will the tentative field assignments be posted? |
| Sept. 29, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | Sometime after the World Masters Championships end ... |
| Sept. 29, 2015 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Any game times posted for this event yet? |
| Oct. 8, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | Just checking back on PHX. field assignments? Thanks |
| Oct. 8, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | We will know more as we get closer to the entry deadline of October 27th, 2015 ... In the interim, we can speculate with some degree of confidence on a few Divisions ... • Men's 65+ through 80+ will play at Rose Mofford and Papago Parks • Women's Senior Divisions (50+ and more senior) will play at Mountain Vista Park |
| Oct. 21, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | Dear SSUSA Staff---any updates for the possible field locations for the 60's? |
| Oct. 21, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | Not yet ... Deadline isn't until Tuesday, 10/27/15 ... It'll be a couple or few days thereafter, if we publish them ahead of the generation of the DRAFT game schedules and brackets ... Check back here periodically ... |
| Oct. 28, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | Good Afternoon Any update on this discussion thread? Thanks |
| Oct. 28, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | No update ... The entry deadline was extended through the end of this week to accommodate the Men's 40-Masters, who just concluded their Session of the World Masters Championships on Sunday ... The attendance has already significantly exceeded the former tournament record of 175 and could surpass Reno as the second largest tournament on the annual calendar ... We probably WILL NOT be attempting to guess where any divisions will be until entries finally close, are tabulated, games demand is calculated and that demand is matched against existing fields inventory ... Best estimate right now is when we actually generate the DRAFT schedules and know where everyone will fit in the (possibly expanding) fields inventory ... |
| Oct. 28, 2015 Ozone8 44 posts | Does that mean your earlier projection (Oct 8) of field assignments for men's 65-80+ is no longer valid? |
| Oct. 28, 2015 DaveDowell Men's 70 4312 posts | Nope. The Men's 65-85+ divisions will be playing at Papago or Rose Mofford. |
| Oct. 28, 2015 Ozone8 44 posts | Thank you for that clarification |
| Nov. 3, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | Good Morning Any updates would be appreciated Thanks and have a great day |
| Nov. 3, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | UPDATE • We are finishing up a comprehensive revision for the Winter Nationals (FL) due to a late team withdrawal AND are seeking an additional playing facility for Session #2 in Phoenix to accommodate the games demand from the new tournament record attendance ... Will advise when we know more ... It's likely several divisions will be playing in multiple locations ... |
| Nov. 3, 2015 Brock Men's 80 84 posts | SSUSA - I believe the group asking the questions here are concerned about the first session, either Rose Mofford or Papago so they can get reservations firmed up for hotels. Looking at the number of teams in the first session, I would assume those decisions can be made now. As you know, it's quite a distance between these two parks. |
| Nov. 3, 2015 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | Brock ... There will very likely be a third facility for Session #1, and that would be Desert West ... The team load and related games demand is pushing the limits of being able to play these age groups at two sites without resorting to evening/dusk game times ... We finished the major revision to Ft. Myers within the past hour ... Session #1 Phoenix is up next ... Thanks! |
| Nov. 4, 2015 VOODOOSPORTS Men's 40 34 posts | any update on field assignments for phoenix national? Specifically 40s. Team likes to reserve hotels as close to fields as possible. |
| Nov. 4, 2015 DaveDowell Men's 70 4312 posts | Voodoo ... Book on the West Side ... Likely to be either Desert West or Cesar Chavez ... NO GUARANTEES, but that's the current thinking ... Still attempting to get another complex for Session #2 ... |
| Nov. 5, 2015 VOODOOSPORTS Men's 40 34 posts | Dave thanks im going to try and hold off a few more days. Team likes to be by fields and there is 25 minutes between each listed so hopefully you will decide this week. Thank you when do you think final decision will be? |
| Nov. 5, 2015 NYGNYY 215 posts | Hi Just checking back to see where the 60's field's might be...still have teammates wondering about hotels Thanks as always |
