Pop, that's GREAT News!!
(you know how sue and i feel about this.....Outstanding and countiune with those Goals.)

State Games of NC has been there for Us Fastpitch Folks for many years and their committment is to be commended!!:newsmile14:

 

That is REALLY good news! Softball is being recognized as it should in this state! Thank you.

 

Now, what will the girls choose..... all-star game or TRAVEL BALL. I say travel ball since everyone says TB is so much better than hs ball.

 

That's great news !Just hope that there isn't any major showcases that weekend. TB ball is all-stars every weekend !!
Go Cobras !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Great news Coach Rivers ! Thanks for all the work you folks do. I'll say this. If my daughter is fortunate enough to be selected, she will choose to be at the All-Star game.

 

News

Great idea, this is the week after Dynamites Classic and I believe that is the weekend of the Woodstock ASA A qualifier. However, only the Blues and Cardinals have attended in the past. Good luck I hope most of girls will attend this all-star game.

 

Since the All-Star game is for 2007 graduates, most of the girls playing should have already committed and/or signed. So playing in a showcase tourney is not as important for these young ladies as it would be for the '08's & '09's.

June 22-24 is the weekend just before the Independence Day tournament in Boulder,CO which begins on June 26th. So for any of the '07 Cardinals or '07 Blue's who are fortunate enough to be selected, they will be available to play. This also means area college coaches should be available to attend as many of these coaches also attend the Boulder tournament.

This will give the college coaches a great opportunity to see how their recruits compete against the best in NC. For those who may not have signed, this will also be a great opportunity for them as well.

The Cardinal's have already qualified for the ASA Nationals so they would not need to play in a national qualifier that weekend. Hopefully the Blue's and any other team that is looking to play in the nationals would have qualified earlier or at least have plans to play in the ASA State July 6-8 in Cary.

This game is long over due and Pop and the NCFSCA should be commended for getting this done for the sport and especially for the young ladies who will play in 2007 and the years to come.
