Runnin' Rebels held a softball tournament in Stockton this weekend.
Not only did they wait to notify us of field locations & brackets until the day before the tournament, but so many thing went wrong.
The out of town teams all had very difficult Saturday game times, like 9 am, 2 pm and 6 pm, while all the Stockton teams had game times either all in the morning or all in the afternoon/evening.
There were TWO drive by shootings at the evening games Saturday. Literally, players & spectators hit the floor the bullets were so close.
All games both Saturday & Sunday were at least 30 minutes behind schedule.
The tournament fees were higher than other tournaments because there was to be a BBQ for players and coaches, yet the fields we were at had no such BBQ.
All teams were given a 5 game guarantee, but due to poor bracketing, some teams only got to play 4 games.
The drive by shootings are enough to keep people away, but couple that with Regpala's inability to run a good tournament and it is just a messy, long, frustrating weekend.
Epic fail, Regpala & Runnin' Rebels. Epic fail!!!
