FORCE CLASSIC

[mfaulstich]

Judging by the line-up posted for So-Cal's Finest tourney the same weekend as Fresno. The Force Classic doesn't seem like it is going to mean what it has meant to Nor Cal in past years. If most or even all the Big Dogs are going to Hemet, is it worth still going to Fresno?

[jefe]

Not worth going to fresno ever again unless a national berth is on the line. Economics say its not worth the team expense vs. the return.

[NumeroUno]

The Fresno Force Tourney is a great tourney and we have always had fun going. It will still be a great tourney this year and there will be plenty of teams going.

[Giantfan]

Usually they post the teams attending. I don't see that this year does anybody know who's attending and how many teams?

[luv2playasa]

we spoke to the director they will posting teams coming next week......

[Intel]

Currently the Classic has 71 teams, 30 14s, 26 12s, and 15 10s. We will probably cap the tournament at 84 teams (32 14s, 32 12s and 20 10s) We will know more this weekend when we finalize the fields and teams who have entered so far.

That would be to easy...Why make something easier on the customer??
Now a days customer service is like the Yeti, Big Foot or Loch Ness monster. People talk about them, but.......

[NoNothin]

According to the news today, Fresno is the drunkest city in the united states. Might be more economical to go to this tourney since the bar has now been set so low you won't even need red cups!!!

[Hamstring]

Teams are posted and hope to see the bracket early this week. Looks to be shaping up for a great weekend...ahem...even though it's Fresno.

10's can't comment but I'm sure a few whill chime in after this weekend.

12's Storm, Outlaws, Sting, AASA, Stars, Lady Magic and Valley Tribe97(if they get in) stand out IMO.

14's Hard to judge right now on who is really playting on some teams. Needless to say, it will be interesting.
