| Click on Schedules and choose your division. Either 2006 Men's A Fall League, 2006 Men's B Fall League or 2006 Co-Ed Fall League.
I had a lot of requests for certain nights or times and I did my best to accomodate all of those, but couldn't do every single one. I think there are 5 times that people will have to play on a night they didn't want to in the men's league.
Co-Ed is all on Monday nights except for 2 weeks. The first week and then there are 4 games on Friday, September 22nd.
If anyone has any questions, please contact me.

| The quick answer is no. However, if there is enough money left over, we may have one. But, we did not set money aside for one nor did we say that there was going to be one.

| Sure you deserve to know. All you have to do is ask. Or ask your manager. It's not like it's a military secret though and I explained it THOROUGHLY at the manager's meetings and then asked if anyone had an issue with it. Not one person did.
The MAIN complaint that I heard over the winter were the number of games. I asked a ton of the managers and that is what they wanted, more games in the summer. Now with more games, comes more costs. Each game that is played at the field was coming out to about $52 a game (also explained and passed out at the managers meeting). Simply put, having a double elimination tournament at the end of the season adds about $100 on to each teams league fee. The thing is that you are only guaranteed 2 games for that $100. So it's either get more games for your money, or get less games and get a league tournament. I liked having the tournaments but they're very expensive and people were wanting more games, so they're pretty counterproductive.
I am all for having a league ending tournament. But I can't see jumping prices up to $730 a team. People want more games for their money and the league tournament does exactly the opposite of that.
As I said earlier and told pretty much every manager on the phone for the fall league, if we have enough money left over, we may have a fall league tournament. We can do it in the fall because costs are lower (1 or 1 1/2 umpires (Tyson is going to be training as an umpire in the fall for a discounted rate)) hopefully, but we'll have to see where things stand. There are things at the fields that we need to do to make it safer/better for everyone.

| dan if these guys want a tourney so bad they should seek out a sponsor for the additional cost. with extra funds a tourney would be no problem.
