JUNE BUG SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT

FIRST WEEKEND TOURNAMENT (17 hours)

This weekend our office a long with the recreation and civic center hosted a USSSA Qualifying tournament called the June Bug tournament. There were two locations and I was placed at the main complex as an assistant to the site director. That weekend we worked hard on field maintenance, customer service with teams to keep them happy when there was an initial problem with one of the fields, had to take scores and properly seed them. The seeding is actually quite an intricate process especially for the USSSA organization. It was a great experience but the best was the next day when the rain came and cut our tournament short. With that we had to make decisions on playing time, when to stop playing and how to keep everyone happy considering it was a tournament where the top teams of each age bracket receive births to the World Series tournament we are hosting in July.
