We want to accommodate every Nebraska team wanting to play in a USSSA World Series event. If your team is planning to play in a World Series event that conflicts with our State Tournament, please contact our office with your team name, age group and the World Series event you are wishing to play in. Nebraska USSSA baseball will do what it can to adjust the Nebraska State Tournament. This request must be made by February 1.

TENTATIVE dates for USSSA State Tournaments-
Age groups listed below in RED have some conflicts, BUT there are several options for teams.
Locations of State will not be set or released until Entry Deadline. This allows us to match the number of teams to the best complex for those numbers.
Nebraska team classifications are based on the Nebraska USSSA Baseball program and not nationally.
Classifications are based on power ratings, tournament results and by overall team performance on the field.
The State Office will make classification adjustments during the 2012 season and finalized by June 2. This should give teams’ ample time to prepare for State and World Series plans.
Undoubtedly, not everyone will agree with classifications. Any team wishing to appeal a reclassification may do so after playing a minimum of three USSSA tournament games after January 1, 2012 against teams in their new classification. Once the results for these games have been posted to the USSSA.com system, a review will be completed to determine if the team is competitive at the new level.
The term "competitive" is and always will be subjective. A team that plays a little below or above .500 in any classification is competitive. A team that loses every game by one run is also competitive.
IMPORTANT: Do your part to help the accountability of the USSSA system. View the other teams in your classification age group. If you feel a team is not in the correct classification or don’t see a team that should be listed send that information to me. We will flag that team and watch closely. If we get several on a team we will adjust now and not go through the underlined appeal process above. Team Rosters must be online before we can review. Our goal is to get all teams in the correct classification and with you help we will. The class system of play works if you are part of the accountability mechanism. USSSA is the only organization in the country that can make class play work as it should and monitor it.
Teams may be reclassified at any time by the Nebraska USSSA State office.

USSSA is rapidly moving to a national system that will allow all of our tournament directors the ability to post tournament results much quicker and insuring that all teams receive the points they have earned.
Part of this process is the necessity for teams to put their team roster online at www.usssa.com. For the 2012 season, teams cannot be entered into tournaments if their roster is not on-line. Players First and Last names must match what is on their Birth Certificate.
Before playing in any event please go to www.usssa.com and put your team roster online.
