Heard there was a new 16u team forming in the Soddy area with a local pitching instructor as the coach....anybody know if this is for real or just a rumor.

Which teams have already received a berth?

From Tn it is the Force, Fury and Mustangs.

Nashville - 4 teams

Knoxville - 3 teams

Chattanooga - 1 team

 

Who is supporting ASA now? 8 teams. Didn't Hendersonville have 18 in 16u? Something is wrong in paradise.

 

2 12U

2 10U both Knoxville

5 18U - 2 Nashville, 1 Knoxville, 1 Chatt without a berth

14U is "biggest" with a underwhelming 12 teams if they all show. Knoxville more than Chatt "area" teams. Keep on telling us how Chattanooga carries ASA and how bad the midstate stinks in their support. Keep tellng us that ASA is so much better and is the all important governing body of softball from a 20 year old ole boy system resolution with no meaning. All those alphabets with "pseudo world series" as you keep insisting have run off an left ASA in the dust in Tn but ASA won't listen. 29 teams in a national qualifier for all age divisions. That's embarrassing. There are that many in the USFA State in 14u and 16u alone to qualify for world. They have something like 103 teams. Something is real wrong in paradise or am I repeating myself.

The number of teams in the USFA qualifiers just shows that people would rather pay for a berth to a world series than to earn one. No matter how you finish, if you play you are in. So you dont really qualify, you are just paying for a reservation.

I'm talking A ball. Once again, you didn't know what you were talking about but just had to throw out a smart remark. There are other good players who've signed after playing B but I know you'd disregard them as second-class talents. I'm not talking just from the school here, but from the area outside Hamilton County where you come across as thinking no good ball can be found.

 

The district will be broken up for next year with realignment but this past season's group had 4 teams with at least one state title and 2 others that have made the state, out of 9 teams. East Ridge in particular has fallen hard but the district had at least 2 this year who would have finished no worse than 3rd in 6-AAA. There's only 1 team that has been consistently non-competitive, Howard, but 6-AAA had one of their own in Brainerd for a while and that didn't make the district weak.

Preach on Indian but it sounds like you are fighting a loosing battle with Wilson.

Who will grab the last remaining berth's in 16U? Should be a great weekend of softball at the Summit !

Good luck to everyone!

 

 

 

I heard this weekend that the Summitt is still questionable for this weekend and NSA has Warner Park already booked. Has anyone heard and update?

The Force and the Fury have earned the first 2. Who are the frontrunners for the remaining berths? Who is chasing them?
