Vector, It was something about subing batting order and continuous batting order. This coach also pointed out he had noticed it earlier. Our coach also argued that precedence should have prevailed, especially since the other coach noted it. But it did not work out.

This is travel ball, not park ball where you can argue to the board. Also, there is no board to pick the coaches or exclude them) for the reasons noted above. Its "real" baseball except for these silly playing-field leveling rules. We end up playing in Tennessee as well as in Alabama since we live near the state border. Although USSSA baseball is nationwide, each state has its own version of the rules. We are a young team and still learning the ropes. It was clear what this coach was up to, the director noticed it also. What can happen in the future is teams can be refused, or not invited. That is the risk this coach is running. No organization wants a team coming in that will cause other teams to withdraw.

This team already has a reputation now. Trust me, word is getting out.
