We only have 6 teams in the "A" Division and my team SMPU is probably the least exp. of the teams as I have some people that have played but ( years........ ago) and the "B" Division has 11 teams ....I am a little concerned about playing the same teams over and over as far as comp goes why so many in the B division why not ballance the 3 divisions equally since we have 25 teams 8/8/9? Instead of the current 6/11/8 just a thought.

The divisions are balanced by skill level. There are some teams that play B that may do well in A however for the most part the teams are placed in the divisions based on skill level so they don't get killed every week. However I do in other leagues I've played in that first year teams are placed in low divisions and work up to a higher division so they can prove themselves unless they have a number of players who have played at high levels then they are automatically placed in upper divisions. I will say that I believe if you win the Tournament and/or your divisionyou should automatically be moved up and if you are the last two teams in a division should be moved down to keep the competion level equal vs letting teams decide where they want to go. On that note this league needs to set a deadline.date two weeks prior to the start of games so the schedule can be put out early and not 4 days before the start of games. I have never played in a league where a full schedule wasn't out at least a week before games.

PAC- I have to seriously disagree with you there...I have played in Tualatin many years and have played on various teams...I brought in a new team with very little to no skill level and was placed in A division because of ONE name on the roster...that ONE name had the potential to round up good players HOWEVER...this group never played organized ball WHICH was voiced at the manager's meeeting several times...we ended up 0-11 so the skill level BS is just that BS...
