| Aug. 7, 2017 TimMcElroy 942 posts | Mid-Atlantic Last Chance (Sterling, VA) Quick reminder that registration for the Mid-Atlantic Last Chance qualifier closes on August 12th (Saturday). Additional details are on the SSUSA tournament page. If your team is planning to attend, please contact both SSUSA and Tim McElroy right away. We already have teams entered in the men's and women's 40s and men's 50-65s divisions. That is as much as I can tell you at this time. Keeping with SSUSA's policy, I will not be posting the team list until a few days after the registration period closes. If you are looking for a quality tournament or are looking to qualify players for the postseason, this is the place to do so. Here are some things to know- * Games will be played at Potomack Lakes Sportsplex in Sterling, VA * This is a 4 game guarantee with no Friday play. We will play on Saturday / Sunday. * We're using a 2-day format at the request of players wishing to save their leave time for the "bigger" tournaments. * Being a 2-day tournament, we cannot honor any special start time requests. All teams should expect to play when scheduled. Hydrate in advance and expect a full weekend of games. This question comes up every year, so I would like to clarify in advance- The Mid-Atlantic Last Chance tournament is NOT a Tournament of Champions qualifier. This is a "Last Chance" roster qualifier for the 2017 World Masters Championships. If you need to add or qualify players for Las Vegas this is the place to do it. Thanks in advance for your support!

| Aug. 22, 2017 SSUSA Staff 3490 posts | Coaches, Due to the late withdrawal of a team in the 60s division, the tournament schedules for Potomack Lakes were revised. Changes had significant impact on the entire Saturday schedule. Please disregard the original schedule that was previously sent out. • REVISED: Revision 1.0 (8/22/2017) Games at Phillip Bolen Park (Men's 40s & Men's 50 Major) have not been changed. Thanks for your understanding- Tim McElroy Tournament Director Senior Softball-USA |

Was hoping to run into you but you where at other fields. Could not ask for a better weekend. Again Thank You Manny Q RBC/PROGRASS 55 Majors |
| Aug. 28, 2017 TimMcElroy 942 posts | Thanks for the kind words, Manny. I tried to get over to Potomack Lakes on Saturday afternoon to see the teams that wouldn't be returning on Sunday but got stuck behind an accident on route 7. I made a u-turn and went back to Bolen after sitting still for about 15 minutes. See you in Las Vegas. |
