Urbandale Tourney
Jan 6^th, 2010, 5:59pm

I thought I'd post this while it was crappy outside since this tourney is cursed with weird weather every year!

The Urbandale Tournament (name to be determined later) will be held on Friday, May 21st and Saturday May 22nd. With Sunday the 23rd being a rain date.

Format will be something that gets everyone at least three games. Or if you're Stover, 8 in one day. Tongue

niners were victims of their own exaggerated expectations last year. even though they have lost some very good players (thank you for blake), anyone who takes them lightly or who doesn't believe they will be a potentially great team, is a moron.

to quote one CR intellectual; "It's a two horse race this year, Stover and CJ's."

See you in the finals Boz.......hope you pitchin.......

don't we (Old Timer) have 3 teams playing in this year's Urbandale tourney? I mean, come on, with our 95 player roster we should be able to field 3 teams!!! It's kind of like our collegiate spring football game--we're dressing everybody and everybody gets to play!

Old Timer Tavern
CJ's
Stover
Niners
Stadium
Emil's Deli
Tides
Homerun
New Way / McLaughlin Int.

Come on guys, time to start drumming up the teams that are sitting on the fence. If there are any teams out there that are scared away by the entry fee, IM me. A deal can be worked. M'town and Carroll A & B teams are encouraged to attend.

2 weeks left. I'd like to think we could get 16 at least.

[i]"The Urbandale Tournament (name to be determined later) will be held on Friday, May 21st and Saturday May 22nd. With Sunday the 23rd being a rain date."[/i]

"OLD TIMER will be having a tourney May 21-22 at the 6th St. Complex. $150 entry fee. $100-$125 entry for new or B league teams(based on umps)"

ok... cause ya see if I was looking at those two different posts from this website I would get the idea that there were two tournaments on the same day... But apparently its just me that could confuse that... i mean with the same days of the week and the same days of the month

In your original post, it sounded like you were paying winner's & loser's bracket wins and it wasn't pool play. Just wondering if pool play games were worth $ or if you were paying a different way now.

So basically... 15 teams x $175.00 (+2balls) = $2,625.00 and the most the top bracket winner can win is $300.00? and the total payout is only $1,050.00? Where does the other $1,575.00 go? Can't imagine it's that much for umps and field rental? Am I missing something?
