UPDATE: College (22U)/Unlimited Divisions
posted by Administrator 03/28/2006 06:03:27
Teams are confirmed:22U Gold (also eligible for Unlimited)(1) WFD Fordians 22u(2) Vermont Lakers 22U(3) Pittsfield Pirates 22U(4) Queensbury 22UUnlimited Gold(1) So. Troy Dodgers UNL(2) Albany Senators UNLRegistration Fees and Tournament Eligibility:After talking to the NABF, I have changed my mind and decided we will host the 22U College Regional afterall, but we will keep it a small tournament, thereby significantly reducing the cost. Each College team (22U eligibility) will pay $200 for that tournament and the league will have two berths in that tournament. This fee is mandatory for 22U teams and is already included in your base fee of $500/team. The base fee for the Unlimited teams is $300. Thus, 2 of our 4 College teams will make the NABF College Tournament and each berth winner will be eligible to draft as many as 6 players from the other teams.All other tournament eligibility is strictly optional:AABC Unlimited - To qualify for a berth, we need 4 teams to register. WFD 22U, STD UNL and ALB SEN are probably registering AABC and PITTSFIELD is not eligible for AABC registration. Thus, we would need Queensbury or Vermont to register for AABC for us to qualify for a berth to that tournament (also local and on a different weekend form NABF tournaments). The fee for that is $125/team.If less than four teams register, all monies will be refunded OR the three teams can pay an additional $40 to register the 4th team.NABF Unlimited - We are offering that tournament on a direct buy-in basis. It is held in CT and is a greatly run tournament on great fields against great competition. The buy-in fee is $400 and we can have as many berths as we want BUT you must go if you buy one.Dates, Sites, fees etc. for all AABC and NABF tournament eligibility are shown on your team registration page on the website.End-of-Season League TournamentSince we will be hosting the 22U College on July 29, we should move our League tournament earlier. The week of the 22nd is NOT good because fields are being used that week to host numerous sanctioned tournaments at younger age divisions UNLESS we want to play at Queensbury and VT. Another possibility is to rent Waconah (Pittsfield) that weekend (July 22-23). Joe S (Pittsfield), please inquire as to availability of Waconah that weekend.Finally, please get your teams registered on the website NOW, and please submit all registration fees no later than April 7, along with all scheduling info. Your schedules will be available by mid-May.Season Opening TournamentLast year Bill hosted a for fun opening tournament at his fields, the week before Memorial Day Weekend. If he wants to do that aging, or if somebody else wants to do that, or even two hosts, let me know and I will work that into our plans.From The LeagueI thank all of you for being part of the League. We are happy to be able to offer a place to older players (18+) that want to continue playing baseball at a high level.
