Date June 14, 2010                  To:     Participating Coaches                From:  Chuck Sheldon, President NMABA             Subject:  High Desert Classic Tournament  To all participating coaches, Welcome to the Thirteenth Annual High Desert Classic Tournament, which began as the Albuquerque Invitational in 1986. This Wood Bat Tournament is steep in traditions of team excellence, good sportsmanship, and fair play.  All have been and are the foundations for our tournament.    The High Desert Classic, this year will be a Forty team event with teams representing; Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas. Teams will be seated to eliminate competition between teams from the same area, and for teams that have faced each in the round robins other than the championship rounds on Sunday. Teams hosting will be given preference to stay at there home fields, to facilitate field operations. The Tournament will start on Thursday, July 8th, at 2:00 p.m. and conclude Sunday, July 11th, with a championship game at 4:00 p.m., with each team being guaranteed five games, weather permitting. The first three games will be played in a round-robin format to determine seating for the next round of competition. The teams will be separated into groups based on their records within round-robin play. The teams with the best records from each group, will be placed into a 28 team bracket. All teams participating in the 24 team bracket have the opportunity to play eight games to determine a true divisional champion.  Teams participating in the 16 team bracket have the opportunity to play seven games.  The Championship for the 16 team bracket will be played at 1:00pm. A list of hotels helping to sponsor this event, is included below.  If you have not already paid you deposit please contact me, to make arrangements.  The balance of the $600.00 is due June 1st.  Team packets will be available at the coaches meeting Thursday at the 9:00 am meeting. In addition, we have a complete team listing and game schedule, at the meeting. We wish everyone a pleasant stay and a great time in New Mexico.  Please check our WEB: “www.newmexicobaseball.com” Site for the latest details.    CHARLES V.
