We are going to offer a Fall Tournament this year over Labor Day weekend.The name of this tournament will be the Sports Post Labor Day Classic.The Sports Post Event Photographer is going to sponsor this event (remember the outstanding pictures and posters).We are going to treat it as a Fall State Tournament and give it State Level II points.
Teams will need to be sanctioned to participate but will not have to have their rosters online. Points will not appear until you have a complete roster online. That means you can play with whoever you want on your team and then later when you put your completed roster online the points will appear.What a great way to get a jump start on 2011.
Spots will fill fast so enter early.Deadline for this event will be Aug. 31.

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 by June 7th. 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, 2010 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. 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 NebraskaUSSSAState office.

Nebraska USSSA Baseball encourages all USSSA baseball teams to purchase team insurance.
POLICY FEATURES:
Only USSSA Registered teams may purchase this insurance.
USSSA team insurance covers the play and practice of amateur activities in the insured sport, including organized / sanctioned activities of other associations.
Accident Medical Coverage: $100,000 Limit - Secondary to any other collectible insurance; primary if no other insurance is in force.
Liability Insurance: $2,000,000 Limit - Lawsuits against players, coaches, sponsors, volunteers and league officials are increasing at an alarming rate. Play with peace of mind knowing you will be covered by one of the best sports liability programs available.
Beginning August 1, 2009 teams can now purchase team insurance for the 2010 season that will give the team coverage for the entire season. Coverage will last from 8/1/09 thru 7/31/10. Teams may still purchase insurance for fall only at 1/2 price.
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 2008 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.
