Exactly. Unfortunately for the charity, they are too focused on making this a get together for different teams to gather around and hang out, as opposed to different people getting together to support a charity. It's too bad that the charity is going to be the one that loses out.

BTW, if you have anything to say on my comments as far as donating to the charity, I just sent a message to one of your little squads agreeing to go in the dunk tank for them at thier car show. Don't judge me because I'm not on a team/club.
No one is judging you i dont know you we are just saying this is going to be a car club event.We will hold another one if we have to,to let randon teams sign up.I have talked to other clubs about this and they also agree on only clubs.So thats what we are going to stick with.But i have 2 clubs who may be short a couple people so ill make a list of people who wanna help a club out if they need someone.If you wanna be on that list just let me know.

Put me as number 1 on that list. I just enjoy playing. I had no plans on stacking a team, I would just throw the first 10 people interested in playing/helping out the charity together and call it a team. I still think you are stupid thought for leaving out people who would be more than willing to participate and donate to your charity, just because they aren't in a team.

Alright here is a solution, how many 100% garunteed clubs do you have, make that list, then get everyone who wants to do this on a list.Now,how many innings are you going to play,put all those people on the club teams, this is what we did when we had a tournament between different churches, each team had between 20-30 players that wanted to play. Each time at bat a different gruop went to the plate,and they alternated in the out field, the last two inning then each teams picked among themselves who were the best players to play, we never had a problem with this set up. Obvisiously this idea was better than you thought(softball game participation) I know I said before clubs only but if that many people want to play we should let them, you still have your clubs and they get to meet people with other interest other than show cars.Plus adding alot of teams, do plan for this to last one day, you still dont have field,you might not be able to get amultiple field complex where you can play two or more games, and lets not forget umps, you get a bunch of teams you might be there for 2 days and nights,LOL.

Its gonna have to be a 2 day tournament.I have 8 clubs as of now and i havent talked to anyone out of Drag.Its gonna be 7 inning games.You have your lineup everyone has to atleast play 2 innings and 1 at bat.This was just an idea now i know we have a huge turn out of clubs already im getting everything together.We arent gonna do this anytime soon.The tournament will be in the end of august or in september once i get the field like i said the clubs will get together on a date.Almost every club around here has more then 10 people for the ones who dont ill make a list for others to join for the ones who do not have 10 members.I would like to find a place with more then one field,if anyone knows of a complex all i know is briarfield.I have a field but would be easier to have more then one field for as many games as we will have to play.I wanna do it in september when it is cooler.Playing 2 or maybe 3 games now would be to much.
