I received a letter congratulating me because my son was picked for the USSSA 2014 edition of the "Best Players in USSSA Baseball." My son is not a Major player.
Does anyone know anything about this? I tried calling, but you can't get a live person.
Thanks |

Not a scam, but a waste of money. Basically, just like the "who's who" books that are published. You send in info, they collect all the info, publish it in a book, then sell it to all the people who sent in info.
It's just a worthless directory that they create merely as a means of selling an overpriced book that has their kid in it.
There's no merit in being in the book. |

Is it asking you to send money? If it is, it is likely a scam.
Although USSSA is a very reputable organization. If you are looking for a real person to contact try william.saunders@usssa.com he pretty much runs all those specialty team things.

Everybody who played a USSSA event last year will receive that letter. It doesn't matter how good they are. |

There's certainly nothing exclusive about it. In fact, if you didn't get the invitation via mail, simply click the button on their website to generate your invitation code.
