Men's Fall Classic 1-Pitch Tournament 2023
Posted: Wed Sep 06, 2023 7:06 am
Date: Saturday, October 7, 2023
Rain Date: October 28, 2023
1st Game: 9:00 am (all games to be played at the Eureka Quarry ball field)
Cost: $300.00 per team
The $300 (CASH ONLY) team entry fee must be remitted to the league on or before September 29th. You can give it to me or Nancy Razzi at the Quarry ball field. Be sure to get a cash receipt.
Each batter receives 1 pitch. If the pitch is fouled off, swung at and missed or hits the mat or plate, the batter is struck out. If the pitch is a ball, the batter walks. Fair batted balls are played in normal fashion. The pace of play is fast. The games are quick. It's a lot of fun for sure.
This is a great opportunity to make a name for yourself in the SBA community and earn some cash prize money for the team. You can enter an existing SBA league team. You can enter a partial SBA league team and cherry pick players from other teams to join up with you. Or, you can build a team from scratch with any combination of players from any combination of teams. The only requirements are listed below.
Roster Requirements: Each team must have in their line-up AT ALL TIMES no less than 6 registered Softball America league members. Registered SBA league member refers to any player that has paid a league fee in 2023. This is an insurance requirement. Tournament teams need not be the same as regular season teams. Tournament teams can be a combination of 2 or more teams. The 6 currently registered SBA members on a tournament team can be from 6 different teams. As long as you have these 6 current SBA members, you can fill in with former league members or additional current league members. Keep in mind your total roster shall contain NOT MORE THAN 7 all-stars. Outsiders to the league are not be eligible for this tournament.

Prize Money: After expenses (trash, port-a-potties, softballs, umpires, scorekeepers, statistician, electric, insurance, etc.), the prize money breakdown is listed below (based on 6 teams). There is more cash available this year because I am not ordering a 3rd port-a-pot. We shouldn't need it. If I am wrong, hold it in or use the woods out back.
1st Place: $700.00
You can see Curtis (CSA) and get yourselves team jerseys and other stuff like custom hats and batting gloves.
2nd Place: $100.00
3rd Place: $0.00 Nothing for 3rd place.
