PGF Houston

[texasugly1]

Yes sir, blind draw to bracket. Two pactice games, referred to as pool games. Last year they had the bracket up on Friday. I don't think anyone has both practice games on Friday night, so everyone will be at the field Saturday morning, bracket play starts at 10:30 I believe.

Not sure what age group your referring. But several in the 18U have 2 games on Friday night.

... Should I pound more coffee and so my brain can wrap around this?

Try to wrap your brain around this - PP games are scheduled 1:15 apart and the rules say they're 1:30 no new inning.

Time-Limit, 1:30 no new inning in pool games, no time limit in bracket games.

I guess Houston has found a way to manipulate the space-time continuum.

haha!

This tourney has no pools, and we have pools for Surf City this weekend but I can't find the brackets! Maybe it's just early summer and everyone is getting over the HS blahs!

Blind Draw!!!!! I thought it was weird that most of the local Texas teams where playing each other and most of the out of town teams where playing each other......

What happened in the 14u PGF qualifer? The bracket on the website looks like the tournament was not played out.

Did six of the seven teams qualify? If so, which team was the unlucky team to miss out?

No, they just couldn't decide what kind of time limits to use. Ended up being 70 minute, finish the batter pool games and 90 minute bracket games. Rules posted on the IG website said what you gave above and rules sent out in the one page packet were different than what was actually done. Wierd...

Tournament went off pretty well though. I figure for the most part because my buddy from the Sidewinders was in charge of selling T-Shirts.. I even spotted him umpiring for one batter... You did a great job dude!! Thank goodness you didn't have to make any calls. You looked a bit nervous. LOL
