How can this tournament (or one of Ray Chandlers/Cardinals) be made into a national qualifier? There REALLY needs to be more than one qualifier in NC! Why is NC ASA so far behind other states like SC, GA, & VA?

 

ASA National Qualifiers

Who/Where/How many National qualifiers are determined by ASA National. Only so many given to a particular region. Only one given to a state per age group. This does need to change but is kind of out of NC ASA's hands right now.

 

I may be mistaken but the number of berths are based on the number of ASA registered teams in a stste,this includes Rec. teams and Etc.Anyone know for sure.Also limiting the amount of qualifers helps in the quality of teams making it to the Nationals say 120 in ASA or 300 in NSA just an example.But the State should at least carry 2 berths to the ASA Nationals.

 

Sadly, it is based on the number of registered ASA teams for the entire state. The more you have registered, the more berths you get. Best case scenario would be 2 berths for NC. Lot of NC teams do not register with ASA or play ASA. This is especially in the 10u, 12u, and 14u age groups.

 

ASA

ASA is the premier softball association in the nation. It is the organization that sets the standard for all aspects of competitive fastpitch nationally.
NC has been behind in getting ASA recognized as such in the state.
NC ASA is going through some changes right now. Hopefully, the changes will have a positive impact on all age groups in the state. There will be more information available before long. Stay tuned!

 

The big key to helping ASA in NC is to get people that are up to date and involved with junior olympic softball involved with ASA. Specifically meaning those that are involved with junior olympic softball in NC holding a position of office with NC ASA.
