Please Note: The field numbers have been inserted above.
Fields # 7 and # 8 are the two fields on the left when entering the park. ( I believe the 2nd and 3rd fields on the left )
Fields # 4 and # 5 are the two fields in the back of the park on the right.
Plenty of parking there and the parking set up is one (1) long row of parking and you will understand why I say for safety purposes you might want to parked back in as not only the traffic from the teams.. but traffic from other park visitors as well drive down through the parking area.
NO Tournament T-shirt sales will be on sale. Talked with Rick Moorehead about selling some of the OFC shirts at the concession stand instead of tournament Tee's . Large and extra large sizes. We'd be the first ( 1st ) tournament in Ohio to sell the OFC shirt
. It benefits all of us as the funds support the OFC website costs... and who has one
I have seen one Dad wearing one at a tournament this past summer. Good reason to buy one. I know I want one. Rick's daughter and son had one design on a hoodie and it was SHARP !!! The price of the T-Shirt would be $15.00 with ALL proceeds going to that "electricity eating website" we call OFC.
Coolers are indeed welcomed. I should know by Wednesday morning IF a non-profit group is coming in to run the concession stand. When talking with Scott Jerles of the Dover Parks.. I asked him to find a local girl's softball organization to run the concession so it may help them financially this coming year.
Afterall, what is better than girls softball teams playing and at the same time helping another girl's softball org out.
Parents with boys... there are tennis courts and basketball courts and from what I am told, Disc Golf magazine rated the Dover Park disc ( Frisbee) course as Number #1 in the State of Ohio :yahoo:
Parents: Lawnchairs are my best advice as always at all tournaments.
*******************************************************
We are having a team's "Meet and Eat" at Shoney's Restaurant at 7:15 am to 8:30 am.. The fields are only 5 minutes away from restaurant. Love to see some of the teams get together before the tournament and even after the tournament is over as well ( if you can't make it to the morning session ). I'd like to get the Shoney's company to become a sponsor of this event in 2011 and then maybe I can take that money and apply it to hoodies for 3rd and t-shirts for 4th place and then the ALL the girls get something !!!! :yahoo:
A heads up from the parents .... if they are coming to the "Meet and Greet" and via email to your coach/Team Mom so he/she can email to me a somewhat total ... would be nice so they can be staffed to handle us softball junkies
and have plenty of fruit and things on the bar for the girls to eat early.
TOURNAMENT RULES
1. There is NO rules !!!
2. Bat 11.. any nine in the field. Free substitution in line up as many times you want as long as the player goes back into the same batting order spot. NO out for injured player leaving the game OR a player having another committment to attend. The line-up is just squeezed. Pitcher can have one or both feet on the rubber as this is an all sanctioned tournament. Pitcher MUST release with 10 seconds after stepping on the rubber.
3. Full games of 7 innings are to be played. NO ties can happen. ITB will be used but with a twist. The last two outs are to be placed on third base AND second base to start out the extra inning after 7.
4. Run Rules are: 10 after 3 innings, 8 after 4 innings and 7 after 5 innings.
5. Tie Breakers: a) Best overall record, b) Head to Head, c) runs given up, d) runs scored and e) 2 inning playoff under ITB rules stated above. I hate coin flips.
PLEASE NOTE: This is the first year of the Uniform Blowout that I ever had to worry about second place prize to be given. So three (3) teams with 2 wins - 1 loss records can indeed happen. Tie breaker order could indeed come into play.
