ASA, Triple Crown, USSSA, USTBA, AFA - Whats your ranking..

What's on your mind?

How do you rank all the available associations out there. Who gets the best teams to them and why if you have an opinion. I get this question all the time and would like to hear how others answer...

1. ASA (Highest caliber of teams at Nationals)

2. Triple Crown (Still runs the best tournament in So Cal with live updates, etc....)

3. USSSA (Hold few tournaments compared to TCS but has World Series at Disneyworld :D )

4. AFA

99. FAST

100. USTSA (Still too new to Fastpitch to guage)

Here in Texas:

1. ASA

2. USFA (Best Vacation Around)

3. USSSA (Second best vacation and more divisions Ie. 11U and 9U )

The rest are pretty much non existant

Yes, this is what I have seen in my short experience. Triple Crown runs a good tournament but they hire those terrible umpires from San Diego. You know the ones rec ball wont hire.
