Coaches,
We are getting close to June and that means that the 24th Annual Military Band-Aid tournament is just around the corner. The weather is finally starting to look good in Colorado Springs and we can just admire the snow on the Peak. Please make sure that you check the team list. If you are in bold that means your team participated last year and I have NOT yet heard from you this year. I have been hearing rumors of players coming with a team(Ft.
Riley), but no one has contacted me from that team to date. The teams that are highlighted in yellow have committed to attending this year's tourney but have not registered their team online. That is why I can't add you to the list online as attending.
We are still at 27 varsity teams and I'll take only 5 more teams max in that division. I know there is a team(Team Offutt), trying to see if they have enough players to attend this year or not? I have 8 teams in the intramural division and hopefully will get a few more in the next week. I know the leagues will be starting soon on the local bases so that should help. The deadline to enter will be Wednesday, 4 June, at 5pm MST. That means you have one week to enter the Band-Aid. I have a lot of work to complete the last week and I'll be very busy prior to the first pitch.
I will be working on some issues with the USSSA State Director, Scott Cameron, UIC, Eric Blakesley, as well as Mr. Miller and Mr. Hockey. A couple of things that will hopefully eliminate a few rumors. My plan right now is that we are hitting 8 HR's across the board in the varsity division and 2 HR's in the intramural division, just like last year. I'm not planning on using the pitching screen but these are two things that I will address when the by-laws come out prior to the tourney. We are hitting the Worth Classic Plus this year so that answers that question before everyone starts asking.
I have had 4 teams pay me, which is much appreciated. This helps me out tremendously with the initial cost of hosting this tournament. You may pay online through the USSSA website, by check, or paypal. If you use paypal, please mark the friend feature and that eliminates the fee I was told.
