The 30th annual Toys for Tots tournament takes place in Palm Springs, California this Friday through Sunday, December 9-11.  The upper division features 28 teams including 4 Major teams, 2 AA teams, 3 A teams, 5 B teams, and  14 C/D teams.  Fence Brokers loaded with their former Resmondo players should be a factor but last years winner Newbreed eventhough they are missing a number of players should be the favorite to win.  Crazy Girls with Greinert, Flip Washington, Brian Zirkle, and Keith Laski among others can be a threat to win and Sonny's I am hearing is missing half their team so they may not be as competitive.  This will also be the first time we see the new Classic Glass (AA) team and there are other quality teams in this event like CDZ Apparel, Bay Area Legends, Elite Sports, Fannyhood, MyAutoJack, Seminoles, Magz, and the Elite team with the police players that have pulled some upsets in the past.  The flight tournament starts on Friday night this year with just a couple of games played then continues on Saturday with 7 flights of 4 teams each.  So each team plays 3 games in their flight and then the top 14 teams in the tournament move on to a single elimination tournament which begins Saturday night and ends Sunday afternoon.  And the lower 14 teams go to their own single elimination tournament.  There is also a men's D and men's E tournament and a Women's Open and Women's D.  The men's and women's open both look like possibly the best fields of teams in recent years, at least the women's.  Total there are over 150 teams and remember next weekend is the Seniors and Coed event in Palm Springs.

The annual home run derby will be Saturday night.

I will have the softballcenter.com chat room open all weekend if anyone wants to talk softball I will not be at the tournament but will check out the chat room and livestream periodically.  Sean Melvin the director should have some livestream cameras up on USSSALive.com
