Recommended Posts

Listed below are teams who have been nominated by other TNSCA schools for the Top Ten Teams of the state. These are only member schools of the Tennessee Softball Coaches Association. If your team isn't listed it could be that they are not members and we encourage everyone to join. 
 
We are now taking nomination for our All-Academic Teams from our members schools and we want all schools to be a part of this association to have your players honor. 
 
This year will be be having a All Star Games for underclassman to be showcase in front of College Coaches. This game will be played the day before our Senior All Star Games. Again only member schools players will be able to be part of this game. So we hope that your school joins and enjoys the benefits of being a member.

A coach's poll of "member teams" makes no sense at all unless TNSCA is holding their own tournament and crowning a state champion separate from TSSAA.

   Just a thought... a much more appreciated poll would consist of all TSSAA member schools with TNSCA schools designated separately.

Maybe you can get the TSSAA to do a poll. But even then all schools want vote!

These polls are for members only and all schools are encourage to join.  Also, a lot of our members didn't vote this time. Our state has a great amount of talent and this Association is trying to honor those players. 

For the $40.00 dollars which is for membership we are spending about $29.50 back to the schools in  All Academic Certificates and mailing. That's not counting the All Star Games we are putting on this year, Miss Softball for all Classification, awards at the All Star Games for the players.. Plus the girls who are chosen will be getting even more awards for that honor.

Is this poll accurate of course not just like the polls College Football Polls, College Basketball polls and etc. The true winner will be in Murfreesboro at the state. 

We are doing our best and if your school has ideas to make it happen we would appreciate it very much!

TSSAA doesn't need a poll... there are multiple polls beginning before season starts and continuing throughout the season, compiled by everyone from coaches, mainstream media, and down to individuals on these boards. Main reason that TSSAA has no official poll, is the fact that they sanction a tournament in order to determine the final order of member teams, decided on the field of play.

  I'm not knocking the idea that your organization has a "members only" voters poll... just that it's ludacris to exclude non member teams from ranking. It would make just as much sense to have a statewide poll that includes only schools that wear black and gold.

Don't get the purpose of having a coaches poll with only specific members of the state. In addition, I don't get the purpose of having a poll in baseball/softball anyway. How do you know whether if Soddy Daisy is better than Dyer County, or if Greenville is better than Covington? I don't get it. Baseball teams lose left and right. Just waisting time feeling out a coaches poll. Seems political as well.

Political or not, it's definitely self serving by excluding teams not paying membership fees. If you're running a recruiting service just say so, because placing teams in a "top ten" poll that excludes teams competing directly against them for non competitive reasons is fictional and misrepresentative of what a top ten list is about in the first place. Smells like advertising their "association" rather than recognizing or promoting the teams.

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
