Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

I agree I think that at the least there should be a rule book on site. We had a situation in Cincy and the Ump did not know what to call. It cost the team we were playing the game.

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

I agree 99,it just seems that BASA has certain rules for certain teams.That's all any player/team wants is a fair shake.I don't think it's that hard to get tha whole staff on the same page.BASA,I think tha whole system needs to be evaluated.

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

......AMEN!...

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

4 show Da Truth! I agree with that situation ,that there should ba rule book on site!

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

And then everytime someone doesnt like a call or wants to argue a call you get out the rule book. It is a true fact that anyone who umpires SHOULD know the rules of the association they are umpiring for, but if they havent been given a rule book then how will they know? The fact remains that rules may be interpreted different by different people and different situations - case in point "know the strike zone, heck the strike zone is different for every batter what you might want to say is pitching arc which for BASA is 3-10 then its judgement on whether the ball comes across the plate between the batter's (one who is 5'9 vs one who is 6'2) shoulder and his knees. Just about every player thinks they know every rule to softball..NOT!!! Rule books should be available to all who want them but that doesnt mean to whip them out and put them in the face of the umpire or the opposing team. For sure provide coaches and umpires with the rule book but a better suggestion would be to have qualified, knowledgable umpires that would solve many of the problems. What happened to having umpiring clinics???? Or did you ever???

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

Rules, Rules, Rules. You are right there should be
rules books at every tournament. That would slow down
a lot of problems. And rules must be put to use correctly. Pitch limit is (3 from the hand 11 max)
not 3 to 10 that is usssa pitching. Just a little help.
But you would know that if you had a Rule book.
Are as you said if there was one at every tournament.

Need a little help with the rules send me a message.
I do still have the rule book.

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

JUST A LITTLE HELP: DOES US ALL OF US A FAVOR POST YOUR RULE BOOK ON THE WEB SO ALL OF US CONCERNED PLAYERS CAN HAVE ONE PLEASE

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

Did anyone remember seeing the umpire clinic that was going on during the tourney in Cincy?

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

GET BETTER AS FAST AS POSSIBLE>>>>>GOOD LUCK<<<<<

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

Big Vic,real talk!The only problem is that the BASA is not open for suggestions.It's either their way or the highway.Sooner or later,they're going to have to make some changes or lose more teams than they already have.

Re: 2 THE WHOLE BASA STAFF & TEAMS

HAVE YOU GUY'S EVER WONDERED WHY THE BASA STAFF HASN'T RESPONDED TO YOUR COMPLAINTS YET,I HEARD SOMEONE SAY LET'S BOYCOTT THE TOURNEY'S,FIRST OFF YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT YOUR'E THE CUSTOMER,SO IF BASA ISN'T GOING TO GIVE YALL AN ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTIONS THEN I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE,I'M SURE THE OTHER CIRCUITS WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU PLAY,ALSO YOU PAY BASA THEY DON'T PAY YOU.
