I have been informed that this organization has a secondary function. They are supposed to be promoting baseball throughout this country.
It would seem that they again are doing a poor job at that since the majority of baseball people at the grass roots level are unaware of their existence.
It becomes apparent that they have become a detriment in their current incarnation. They have done more harm than good. They have done far more in their time to promote foreign baseball players than home grown players. By losing to small third world nations, it minimizes the youth of this nation.
This thread was intended to congratulate the local boys who were selected to participate. It should not have turned into a forum for suggestions to improve the performance of the governing organization. It should not have turned into a thread for apologists of this organization either.
