All - with tryout season upon us (fortunately or unfortunately), teams are often classifying themselves as A, High B, B, Low B, C, etc. I would like to hear some opinions on the different classifications. For example, if you IDENTIFY as High B team what specifically makes a High B team? Your record? Your schedule?
Not looking to "pick a fight" but I would to hear Mike Craig, Russ Smith, Michelle Fletcher, etc. and other officials from USA, USSSA, PGF, etc. weigh-in. I know when a coach registers their team, you are often asked to classify yourself and I wonder where is the criteria? Tournament Directors your opinions are important to me as well because you often limit some of your tournaments to "B/C Only". Can we all agree Lasers Showcase, Stingrays are A level tournaments? Where does the Fastpitch Showdowns rate? Or Uncle Charlie's?
Looking forward to your responses!!!
