Disqualified

Barb went to the community center early in the morning to register for the tournament.  I went to the ballpark early for our first game.  We had another game around noon and then had a break.  So I went over to the community center to see how Barb was doing.  She told me that she was disqualified from the tournament because she was rated 4.5 and the tournament was restricted to no higher than 4.0 players.  There was another pair of players that Barb knew in the tournament who were also disqualified.  The organizers let her play exhibition games but they didn't count in the tournament.  It was okay anyway because her partner was not very good and they never hit Barb the ball.  So they lost most of their games.  I was coaching our last ball game of the day and Barb came over to the ballpark and told me she was going home.  My team wasn't in the playoffs on Sunday but I said I was going to stay and watch the playoffs anyways on Sunday.
