Everything that has been said to this point by everyone is the truth. That already being said the TD should not be allowed to run another tourney by us the teams, players, coaches parents and fans of softball anywhere because he is the responible person for every complaint filed. Along with the fact that no fields were touched until very late sunday morning, no calls were made to anyone, and the PAYING CUSTMERS were the only ones working the diamonds
1. We went to go warm up for a game and were yelled at because they had just planted grass in a very small area and did not want us to mess it up, OK where would you like us to warm up? and the staff member stated "not my problem." then pointed to a dirt strip that had bolders (not rocks) bolders and said you can throw over there if you have too.
2. Our team watched as several people wearing staff shirts arrive jerk around and then never touched a field until finally the umps showed up and said something needed to be done.
3. No coolers sign posted and enforced as they put up a tent to sell crap charging 5x's the regular price all while the fields are be worked on by thier PAYING CUSTMERS.
4. EVER HEAR OF QUICK DRY moving on!!
5. the bathrooms were digusting and the 3 portajons that they had were so full that the girls could not hardley stand to use them so the had to run all the way to the main building or hold it till the game was over.
6. They lined the fields one time and then did nothing else the rest of the day unless the PAYING CUSTMER did it for them.
7. The TD left the park. so when we finally are playing the Championship game at around 11:10 some guy comes up who worked for the complex and says this games time limit is up, the game is over the umpire tells the guy that there is no time limit on the Championship game they talk waisting more time (mind you that the game is in the bottom of the 6th and we only play 7) they finllay aree and let the kids who have worked this hard finish.
8. If the guy that was so worried about leaving would have brought the trophies down with him everybody could have been out af ther 15 mins faster but no he was not that smart.
That being said: i don't think that i have touched the surfuce of all of the stupid thing that happened this weekend.
congrats to everyone who played, coached or just watched the games this weekend.
TD you should be ashamed >
