2012 Maryland NASAT team

Post by The Stately Rhododendron »

Seeing as there really is no discussion on wether or not Maryland will have a NASAT team, I want to get people's opinions on:

1. Is there any interest in fielding a team for NASAT?

2. If so, where/when should tryouts be held, if they're held at all?

3. How would transportation work and how would the costs be split?

I can say that I would really want to field a team for this, because my team can't really go to any national tournaments this year. Also, our team could probably accomodate any tryouts after our tournament next week.

We'd [by we I mean me, I guess, I don't want to speak for the team] would be okay with helping run team tryouts, assuming our campus is accessible enough for try-outers.

So, is Maryland hosting the tryouts?

Sure. What times do people want us to hold them?

That'd be fine with me, especially because it means interested people would register for Maryland Spring!

If anyone is still interested, Oakland Mills can still host tryouts for a Maryland NASAT team. They'd probably consist of tossups from an old packet, read shootout style. Any interested people should email me at [email protected].

I think people have given up on this, basically.

Sorry to hear that. If you somehow get a team together, you can still register up to, I believe, the 15th.
