Tierra Canyon All-Star Selection Process
All-Star Eligibility and Practice: Eligibility for All-Star division play is based exclusively on age as set forth by the Southern California Amateur Softball Association (ASA). There are four ASA divisions: 8 & under, 10 & under, 12 & under and 14 & under. Age eligibility is determined based on a player’s age as of January 1st of the current year. All-Star teams are not allowed to be selected or practice before the 1st of May. Regular season team practice will take precedence over All-Star team practice until the regular season has ended.
All-Star Selection Committee: The purpose of the All-Star Selection Committee (the Committee) is to supervise the selection process of All-Star managers and players. The Committee will consist of the Commissioner, the Player Agent and a Board Member at Large to be appointed by the President. All players selected to an All-Star team are subject to approval by the Committee.
All-Star Manager Selection Procedure: The Commissioner or the Player Agent will contact each team manager to determine if they are interested in managing an All-Star team. Interested managers will have their names placed in nomination. Managers may nominate themselves in a division other than the division they are managing during the regular season (for example, a minor division manager may place their name in nomination as the rookie All-Star manager). Each manager will vote for one of the nominees in their respective division, with each manager eligible to vote in only one division. In addition to the manager’s votes, the Commissioner and the Player Agent shall each have one vote in each division. In the event the Commissioner or Player Agent is a nominee, they may not vote in their capacity as a Committee member for the division is which they are a nominee, and the Board Member at Large will then become the voting member of the Committee. In the event of a tie vote, the nominees may be interviewed by the Committee and the league President. If the Committee is unable to reach a decision, the league President will cast the deciding vote. If no regular season manager places their name in nomination to manage the All-Star team in a certain division, then the Board of Directors (the Board) may extend the offer to assistant managers or other qualified candidates. The Committee will endeavor to present final All-Star manager selections to the Board during the April board meeting. Final All-Star manager selections are subject to approval by the Board.
All-Star Player Selection Procedure: Each regular season team manager will be contacted by the Commissioner or the Player Agent and asked to nominate a minimum of two eligible players (there is no maximum) from their team for an All-Star team. In addition, each team manager will be asked to nominate five eligible players from the rest of their division. Any eligible player participating in a higher division during the regular season will automatically have their name placed in nomination. The Committee will compile a list of nominees and submit them to the managers in their respective divisions for vote. Each manager will receive seven votes. The votes from each manager will be tallied and used for placing girls on the All-Star team as "league-wide" selections. The seven players receiving the most votes will be placed on the All-Star team as league-wide selections. However, in order to be considered for league-wide selection, a player must receive a minimum of two votes. The names of the remaining nominees will be given to the All-Star team manager for review and selection, although nomination is not required to be selected for the All-Star team. The All-Star manager is responsible for selecting the remaining players (up to a maximum of 14 players) on the team. An All-Star manager may request a player voted in as a league wide selection be removed for cause. The Committee will be responsible for reviewing any such request. All players selected to an All-Star team are subject to approval by the Committee.
All-Star "B-Team" Formation: The Board may consider forming a second All-Star team (or "B-Team") in the Rookie and Minor divisions. The manager receiving the second most votes during the All-Star manager selection process will receive first consideration for the B-Team manager position, the B-Team manager may also be appointed by the Board. All manager selections are subject to approval by the Board. Any eligible player receiving a vote during the league wide selection process that was not placed on an All-Star team will automatically be placed on the B-Team. The B-Team manager is then responsible for selecting the remaining players (up to a maximum of 14 players) on the team. The manager may request a player voted in as a league wide selection be removed for cause. The Committee will be responsible for reviewing any such request. All players selected to an All-Star team are subject to approval by the Committee. Last updated 03/04/03 |
