"More teams than ASA? Probably because they're not asking us to visit one of those exotic locations...let's say, like... Midland..."


Hey now, what's wrong with Midland in August??? Oh wait, never mind....WHAT's RIGHT with Midland...anytime of year????

I hope Triple Crown steps up and realizes that the 14U division is the largest and looks like the toughest division and keeps it at the complex in HB.
Cut out the 10 div. send the 16's and 18' to their own location and work in the 12's here and nearby parks in HB and Westminster.

Should be some great games

Why the He_ _ doesn't Triple Crown limit the number of teams? Seems to me 24 in 12U, 48 in 14U and so forth should be enough without making everyone drive from one park to the next, etc. And aren't the game times like 1 hour 15 min or something? I also noticed throughout the years they do funky pool seedings, 1st play 2nd, etc. Obvious answer is if you don't like it, don't play, but for some reason there just aren't ASA sanctioned tournaments available locally - not that ASA would be much better except I think they would limit the teams maybe to a reasonable number - well maybe :roll:

I think they want to get you ready to drive halfway to Wyoming when you're in Park City. Just setting the standard with too many teams and not enough fields. Pretty soon the games will be 50 minutes drop dead.

Remember, you can sign up and pay for the utah trip, you just need to play in a certain amount of their tournaments first. :D

Depends on traffic -- 30-45 mins if you take the Toll Road 73 saves about 10 min, but costs about $5.00 each way.

Can't wait til the schedules come out Tuesday... talk about a royal bitchfest waiting to happen!

And so what if you have to actually drive to games... it's called Travel Ball for a reason. :lol:
Don't worry about tomorrow. You did that yesterday.
