I realized that when the umpiring was so sub par that it hardly qualified. The favoratism s...hown to some teams was not only obvious but blatant. I have never attended a worse run and officated tournament. There was no opening ceremonies, no closing ceremonies, No thank you for participating, and no official scorekeepers.
