    Cobb County to Host 2010 Girls' 18-GOLD National Championship
    The Amateur Softball Association (ASA) national office has awarded Marietta, GA (Cobb County) as the new site for the 2010 ASA Girls’ 18-Under GOLD National Championships August 1-7. With an ASA Code decision recently passed by the ASA Council, the 18-U GOLD will move to the Lost Mountain Softball Complex in Marietta in 2010, a to be determined west coast site in 2011 and return to the ASA Hall of Fame Complex in Oklahoma City in 2012.

    Happy for Georgia ASA landing this great event. Hopefully more eastern teams will step up to Gold and see how they fare in qualifying. I know you were a major player in this situation and we appreciate what you do for southeastern softball.

    we played as 12U in the ASA Nats. a few years back and the Cobb Co. folks provided all the teams with an awesome experience. Hands down the most well maintained fields I've ever seen. They may not have been the best, but when the rain came, the folks from Cobb Co. busted their butts to make everything right.
    Gotta give props when due!

    thanks, Marlin

    Wish I could take some credit, but I am old school and would have preferred it stay in OKC, so they did not ask me on this one.

    I did not realize it, but in 2001 they were here before. I guess we will see. I had heard this weekend that they were looking to swap 10u and 18u Gold between Chattanooga and OKC. Chattanooga would have been a good choice because of the Chatt stadium. If it was coming to GA, I would have thought it would have landed in Columbus, again due to the Olympic stadium there.

    But at least for this year you can look to save money if you make it.

    By the way, watched your group here in Savannah for a lil while, as you said, GOOD YOUNG GROUP! Thanks for sending them here. They are welcome back anytime.
