Urbanafan I didn't see the part where I had to agree with you! Just stating a opinion which you were asking for. Good luck with your tourny.

My opinion is that the short game should have some element of surprise. This will have none, but good luck.
.......This is not the way the game is meant to be played, more like the way the game is meant to be practiced. Best of luck to Urbanafan.
Ricky here on mobil.
Wanted 2 cover a few things about "BUNTBALL"
This game is a concept game.
U may call it softball, practice, not a game or what every u choose 2 call it.
But im calling BUNTBALL.
At this time jon and i are working on the details.
Once were done taking input from everyone.
Will move on with hosting a test event at no cost to the. 6 teams that attend.
So will be looking 4 - 2 teams in these age groups 14u, 12u and 10 under.
Will do this 2 work out any unforseen problems.
I think u see a very fast pace game with lots of action.
And to cap off bunt slap and drag 1 & 2. With the 2009 BSD Bowl Game.
It will be a game that stands on its owes or a flop.
God bless

I have a question on the rule; NO FORCE OUT AT THE PLATE
Quoting" No force out at home if bases are loaded. Outs must be made at bases or caught flys."
The force at 3rd is ok, but at home it must be a tag on the runner? If a tag on the runner going to the plate is ok its still a force out if bases are full due to blocking path to score.
Are you saying by this rule? A runner on 3rd has free passage to score when bases are full? I am just thinking from a tactical way what or how I would play the odds in defense. This is a defensive game too. The term, FREE PASSAGE from 3rd would indeed prevent impact at home plate but does take away from the skill in laying down a good bunt to score. I just want to clarify how you would make the call in a game.
If this game is a concept why should you have to sanction IFA????.Why not let teams come play without having to pay a sanction fee.
lol....(I think it is a great Opportunity for the players to travel and get the tournament atmosphere and experience the build up.) I think team practices are great too but there is nothing like coaching the players when they go to a event and and see them excited to be there. Our jobs to the kids is to supply them with the Opportunity to play and the more they play the better they get. That is why we go out there, it is the opportunity to do it when there was none before. I am all for the players no matter who they are to have the opportunity to go and have the experience of competition.........it is better for them than texting on a cell phone and eating potatochips all weekend.
The idea of hotdogs and music are good too....
