i just wanted to rant about this tournament. I know dealing with rain isnt fun for anyone but i honestly dont think they gave any to much effort to get this tournament in... As soon as it rained on sunday after they collected all the 5 dollar gate fee. Waited 15 min to cancel the tournament not a 1 hr delay like most and of course about 15 min later it stopped . Congrats on saving the money on field dry and umps and losing teams that probably wont return

You’re obviously an idiot if you were at the park when the storm hit the safety of the kids is the only reason I called the Tournament. It’s easy to sit back and criticize since hindsight is 20/20 the 80% chance at 1 pm carried tornado watches. I’ll gladly take criticism from whoever you are than jeopardize the safety of the players. I opened more fields brought in extra umps moved up 16 and 18u divisions shortened game to 60mins trying to beat the weather. Let me know where to send your $5. Not to mention we refunded $75 to all teams that didn’t finish 3 games. I had 2 daughters in the tournament by the way trust me I wanted to finish.

well im really not an idiot but your right hind site is 20/20 but patience is a virtue and nobody at the field was under any danger and it was sunny the rest of the day and u have lights ....... Thunder elite got there tournament in under flooding conditions those guys worked there butts off just saying shot out to them not saying u didnt work hard but kinda pulled the trigger a little early
