 Dear Managers:

Included with this cover letter is a registration form for the 2007 ASA Region 14 Nor Cal Women’s Fast Pitch Travel League and league budget. Please be advised that this form
and associated league entry fees are due to me by May 22, 2007. This deadline is for any teams interested in playing in the league. All fields have been finalized for this coming
year. On or before June 2nd, I will be mailing (and emailing) each team a league schedule, team roster, maps and league rules. No playing rule changes are planned for the 2007 season.
As always, rosters are due prior to your first game (they are to be turned in to me at the fields) and the rosters will be available every weekend to add players throughout the
season. There is no maximum on the number of players you can have on your roster.
The great experiment last year of permitting teams to sign up for single days or weekends did not increase our participation, save an extra team on our opening weekend. Therefore,
I’m not offering it as an option. However, if a team is interested in participating on any single day or selective weekends, please contact me so I can see what we can do to
accommodate your team.
As in the past, umpire fees will be due to umpires prior to the start of each game. Fees may vary by site, be prepared to pay $30 to $40 per game. I should be able to notify you
the week of league games, the exact umpire fee, as I did last year. Players may play on any league team, as long as they have signed an official league roster. No protests are
allowed, game schedules may be altered by teams, as long as all affected teams agree to the change. Teams may place up to 12 players in their batting order, any 9 of the 12 can
play defense. All other ASA substitution and re-entry rules are in effect for batters in the lineup.
Thank you for your interest in our 2007 league. I’m looking forward to another fun and exciting season. Please contact me at the numbers or email address above if you have
any questions or problems. I look forward to seeing you on the field on June 9th.
Sincerely,  Floyd Lewis

 WOMEN’S FAST PITCH LEAGUE
TO START SECOND SEASON
 

Pacific Grove, CA – The Pacific Coast Region of the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) has announced the formation of a women’s fast pitch summer travel league that will begin play on the June 11-12 weekend in Modesto, California.  This will be the second year that the Region has presented this competitive program under the ASA’s umbrella.

Regional Director, John Miller, in announcing the region’s ongoing support for the program, discussed the need for and popularity of the league.  “The public’s interest in both the success of the United States Olympic Golden Medal winning Women’s softball team and the NCAA Women’s Softball World Series has rekindled the desire for past college and travel ball players to once again hit the field,” Miller stated.  “In addition to past college players, many current college players are looking for an opportunity to play during the summer to maintain their game skills.”

To accommodate the work schedule of potential players, the league competes only on weekends, playing five games per weekend at various sites in the Northern California area.  In addition to the kick-off weekend in Modesto, the league will make appearances in Vacaville (June 25-26), Reno (July 9-10) and wind up in Burlingame on July 23-24.  The league will be expanding this summer to accommodate the increased interest received from players.  Additionally, anyone interested in forming a team to participate in the league, has until June 1 to enter.

Interested players in the West Bay area can contact either Dale Bassman at (605) 349-6804 (email dbassmann@smcoe.k12.ca.us) or Bill Smith at (650) 344-5544 (email nuggetsoftball@aol.com), Sacramento/Stockton/Modesto area players can contact Floyd Lewis at (209) 825-1251 (email floydeunslip@yahoo.com), in the Oakland/Alameda area Phil Mumma at (925) 825-6274 (email phil_mumma@yahoo.com), or in Reno area Mike McGowan at (775) 856-4435 (email mmcgowan@washoe.k12.nv.us).   Any individuals who have an interest in entering a team in the league may contact the League Director, Floyd Lewis, at (209) 831-4224 during the day, or (209) 825-1251 in the evening.
