2016 NTX USSSA State Tournament - Entry Deadlline IP: 199.46.249.149 Posted on July 28, 2016 at 01:32:04 PM by Arnie Burke/NTX USSSA
Just another reminder ... the deadline to enter the 2016 North Texas USSSA men's and women's state tournaments is this Sunday, July 31st, at 6 p.m.
We WILL NOT be accepting any team entries after that time and date, regardless of the reason ... the tournament(s) will be played on Saturday, August 6th and
Sunday, August 7th (if necessary) ...
Both Softball World and Rowlett are having tournaments on Saturday, July 30th ... however, many of the other parks will be closed on the deadline date ... if you can't get to one of these parks and speak with Chris or Mike, I will need to have an email stating your request to enter in my email inbox by the Sunday, July 31st 6 p.m. deadline ... my email address is arnie.burke@usssa.com ... please do not call or text me on my cell phone or any other directors' cell phone and leave a message requesting to enter ... and please don't call on Monday or Tuesday pleading your case as to why you couldn't get your team entered by the deadline ... we want as many teams to enter the event that want to but, at the same time, it takes us time to be able to review all rosters, create the bracket for five (5) different state tourneys, etc.
In addition, your team's online roster must be in the system by the deadline ... we will be locking all rosters of those teams entered and the roster 'check' will begin. The ONLY WAY players may be added AFTER the deadline is if you, as a team manager, are contacted by Chris Thames, Mike DeLatte, Craig Anthony or myself and told you have a problem with a particular player(s) and need to make a roster change ... you have until the deadline to make any changes ...
And last, but not least, if a team is planning on playing in the USSSA World tournaments, to be held in September in Florida, that team MUST play in their respective World tournament …
