Andrew Yount I see u played NSA back in 2013 with Murphy Law in REC...remember you guys well!! Just curious at your post as to where u got that info from? The last ASA I remember in SC has been 7/8;years ago?? And No Uptick?? Just for example in 2017 NSA In SC has had 6 tournamentS and we have had 307 teams play...that is an avarage of 50 plus a weekend...Can Anyone else say that in SC?? We just had the Carolina Wars in ROCK HILL 52 teams...b4 that Battle at THE Border 56 teams..the week b4 for Winter worlds Myrtle Beach 68 teams and b4 that WW Bronze and Coed 82 teams!!! So again would love to hear your reasoning to blast NSA In South Carolina against an Association that has 5-8 teams a tournament ! I agree numbers over all are down BUT I promise with the new ownership and some changes coming it won't be long....treat the teams fair..they will come!
I think you've read into my comments more than needed.
I have absolutely nothing bad to say about NSA. I prefer NSA to all of the other associations around SC. Played SC Air virtually all of last season, and we played almost exclusively NSA the entire season.
2013 was the last time I remember playing ASA in SC, and we played probably 1/2 our tournaments in ASA,
My info comes from my eyes and ears. Nothing else. When I hear friends are going to skip NSA on a weekend to go play (sandbag) in Gastonia, or play in a Freedom at the beach, etc. That wasn't happening a few years back.
While NSA is still king, like I said, USSSA & Freedom have been able to put on more and more tournaments in the area and getting some solid fields/teams to play in them.
I was in no way "blasting" NSA in SC.Just answering the OP's question. Which you even agreed with, to a degree, by saying that overall numbers were down. And that's all i was saying.
NSA in SC is still very well organized. Still has the most teams playing. Still does the best job with umpires. Still has the most tournaments. And does the best job of classifying teams.
