| Dec. 2, 2008 Jose #12 Men's 60 89 posts | How does an individual get his own status changed? I play for a 60 AAA team out of PA/DE. During the end of the 08 season, I played 2 tournaments with a 60 Major team. I went through what I thought was the proper hoops and was released back to may old team for the Ft. Myers tournament. Our coach was infromed by SSUSA that I wa now listed as an "Advanced Player Status". I played with the Major team only because they were short handed, now my team is being penalized. Is there a form, a forum, or someplace to adress this issue. There may be individuals who deserve to be listed as "Advance Status" but not me. I'd appreciate any advise that anyone in the senior softball community could give. Thanks |

This is better than any advice anyone could give you. If you play in any other organizations, you might want to make sure that this is not an issue with them either. |
| Dec. 3, 2008 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | My understanding is that if you can drop one level. For instance, I play 60 Major Plus. I can drop to a 60 Major team but not a 60 AAA or AA team. I'm not quite sure about me dropping to a 55 or 50 team, if I can still drop only one level or if I and drop an additional level in a lower age bracket. I agree with Nancy, you should check with the association you play with. |

| Dec. 3, 2008 Wes Men's 65 335 posts | You are in a no win situation- you can play down but if you ever play Major or Major + you are dead. They assume that you would not have been ask by a Major team to play if you were not a Major player. The best deal I know of is they made to guy sit out of all play for one year and he came back in with a AAA team Wes |
