Depends on what location you want to go too. Half the teams play in St. Charles on Saturday ( both 16 & 18u ) with the other half in Elgin. Same goes for Sunday. This means the colleges better bring two coaches to scout.

Having two locations is kinda brutal. St. Charles isn't right down the street either.

Could not agree more. The two sites are not close and there is no easy way in between either. The college coaches will not go b/w the sites they will camp out at one. I feel it was a way for Dave to get more teams involved which means more money for him.

If it does rain the fields in St. Charles will get rid of the water ( if it doesn't pour ). The fields in Elgin will be none playable. So for Saturday St. Charles may be the better place to go to.

What is None playable? Do you mean Unplayable or non-playable? Hmmmmm . . . I swear I have heard language like that before. |

Leave Midwest alone! I am Sure Jim/Brent/Ed or whomever is midwest is has enough to worry about. Lets treat him with respect here.
As for the weather, My guess is Saturday games will be fine till 2 or 3 PM. Sunday will go on as scheduled!

It is a shame but seems like a lot of the softball world concern themselves with profit over product. |
