Surf City March Classic

[fastpitchdad05]

Nope no response from either one of them on several different ema attempts. The only email address i got was under the contact info on the web sight. They do not list a phone number. I understand that just because they recieved payment didnt mean you were guaranteed a spot but a courtesy email back would be nice so you can make alternative plans. Yes you can check the website but doesnt look like they update it much. Might have to take a trip to the tourney to talk to them.

Good luck Gaphitter. Let them know that how they handle their business with Surf City is a direct reflection on how some of us will perceive Premier as well.

Hopefully one of them will come down off the mountain (yes, that's the perception...right or wrong) long enough to respond here.

I look forward to that.

Do to lack of any comunication from tournament directors Mizuno Pride will not be playing this tournament. After numerous tries to to confirm if we were in the tournament and not getting any response we decided it was our best interest to play elsewhere. Sorry if this inconviences any other teams.

HEY NUMERO UNO

I'm calling on you to leave this thread up. No slander, no names, just some unhappy folks with the way they are being treated. Try to overcome the pressure from the powers that be to nuke this thread. Let it stand please !

Another dissatisfied customer. Haning and Hay...are you listening?

Is this how you will handle Premier?

Although I agree that there is always a huge lake of communication in this, haven't the schedules been out for over a week? Is there more than 1 Mizuno Pride team in 12u division that you wouldn't think it was your team that was entered?

If your team is on the pool schedule and they have cashed your check, isnt that enough to know that you are in? I can understand cancelling last week, but Thursday prior after its been posted for a week?

Mizuno Pride is listed in the Pools schedule.

Still doesn't get these guys off the hook for their "beyond ridiculous" lack of communication and that people are complaining that they are cashing their checks and then subsequently leaving them out of the tournament.

I've heard stories that even when they do communicate it's been brief and without proper explanation.

I understand your point, but they're apparently fine taking some teams' money and not scheduling them.

If it weren't for the fact that this would penalize the other teams it almost seems like turnabout would be fair play...don't you think?

Yes I understand, but I dont see the point in walking away and leaving them a dime. I can hear Hay laughing now.

I think there will be a point where this developing "we dont give a damned" reputation proceeds them. It certainly makes them look hypocritical when defending Premier against ASA.

On a semi-related tangent, anyone know if they have secured fields for Premier 14s yet? I have heard from a few organizations that they believe Premier wont be able to pull off 14s this year, and if they do, it will be at the level of the Valentines debacle.

And that is where I agree with you 100%. But in this case, they are listed on the schedule which has been out for over a week.

If this was one of THOSE teams that were not on the schedule but checks had been cashed and they totally ignored any correspondance, I would be P#(@*! too.
