I am excited about being selected as the new Junior Olympic commissioner for USA Softball of Michigan. 

My goal is to grow the game again in Michigan.    I believe making the game “fun” for the players will help us achieve this goal.  I am working on new ideas and rules for the state tournament which will be fun and competitive.   

In regards to pool play we can use many different rules and ideas to have fun, yet make it more even and competitive.  We will have an A and B class in each division of play.  The rules I plan on introducing will be completely different and exciting.  Please look at this page in the coming weeks as I achieve this goal. 

I am open to any comments and suggestions from players, coaches, umpires and fans.  Feel free to contact me at daveumpire@aol.com
