12U Season Rankings

In my opinion, Louie don't get me wrong, i like your list. But some teams just aint preparing for the next level.

Well good luck to all Norcal taking the trip down south this weekend. They will be competing against the top 12U teams down in that area.

Now lets talk about our local teams

1) Salinas Storm-PGF Bound! Took Metro's, Headed down south this weekend. One of the few Norcal teams to get a PGF birth and taking advantage of it. They got a Good Pitcher, Good Lineup, Good Coaching and Good luck.

2) Lady Magic- May stir up some controversy. But hey, PGF Bound! The team has vision and been competing in the latest tournaments/ friendlies Solid line up and when they click they can do some damage. Going down south this weekend and getting ready for the big prize PGF Nationals.

3) Clovis Rockets- Been playing good softball as the season is winding down. Took Metro's. Registered PGF National Qualifier in Vegas. Willl they go? If so, they will have a good chance to qualify. Good pitcher and big bats! Good luck!

4) Hype Fastpitch- Good team. With a coach that never gives up. Came up short again at the PGF National Qualifier down south. But, you got to take your hat off. Their trying. Hope they get an invite.

5) Grapettes K- Where you at? Great job at Metro's. Question remains... Where you going? Nationals? Why wouldn't you go down south or even chase a PGF birth? Looks like the coaching is holding this team back. That's why they go down in my ranking.

6) Next team to shoot for the ultimate goal gets the 6 spot. I know what everyone is going to say...Their only 12U? Their still young? But if you don't expose your players to the highest level of softball now, then go to magic mountain. Where your girls can have lots of fun.

7) CV Synergy- Yes they got a berth. Question is... How are they preparing themselves.

8) Valley Stompers- Headed down to Triple Crown Nationals. Yes, lots of good teams their. But dont forget. All the solid southern teams are using this event to prepare for PGF!

9) Foothill Gold- Took thier metro's. Great Job. Will they go to ASA Nationals? Hope so...But i have my doubts, they haven't traveled past 45miles out of their area all season.

10) Rapids- Runner up in Metro, Playing decent softball as of late. Pretty good team and pitcher. Whats your plan? Look at the bright side... 10 spot in my rankings. But can they go from 10 spot to the 1 spot with a new name?

Any norcal teams going to ASA Nationals? We need more norcal teams to represent. Good luck to the Hype and Rockets. IF PGF gives away births. It should be to those 2 teams.

Wow Uncle. You rank a team according to where they are going to play at the end of the year and you have no idea where they are going. Sounds pretty lame Teams should be ranked how good they are.

[uncle]

How good they are? They could be the best team in the country. But if they don't compete against the best then how good are they? If the coach can't take them their then they are holding their players back. You can be the best team in USSSA or NSA it doesn't mean your competing.

It's only my opinion....for the next 2 months of softball. These teams should be going for broke and doing anything possible. To compete

Just curious Uncle didn't the Rapids get bounced at Metros by the LTG Lions?

[NorCalBaller123]

I think uncle needs to lay off the sauce...it is making him delusional.

[uncle]

maybe i did my rankings a little to early. I'll post it again late July and we will see who's left and where teams are competing. Maybe some will understand then.

I think the Sauce got me a little dizzy.

[NorCalBaller123]

Don't bother..don't think anyone but LM will be waiting for your next rankings. Go back to your sauce.

[uncle]

you must be one of those magic hatters, or better yet got the short end of the stick because your team isn't going anywhere (i mean any national event)
it's ok you could look online and judge/criticize everyone that is still playing.

Don't be so sensitive.

[NorCalBaller123]

Not sensitive just realistic. Not a LM hater just tired of that bandwagon that all you parents jumped on. Our team is doing great and should finish strong. Getting a kick out of Your choices for nor cal national representatives as they are laughable.

What about KG and the rapids are so better than your placement. Come back Louie!!!!!
