INTERNATIONAL SOFTBALL CONGRESS  -  ISC II Division When the International Softball Congress presented its World Tournament in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, August 9 -17, a companion event was held at the same time. While the ISC was being hosted at the main diamond, the Peter Hallman Ballyard, the ISC II started off at nearby Bud Park and finish up at the Peter Hallman Ballyard. The I.S.C. II tournament had its inaugural run in Kitchener-Waterloo in August 2002. Nineteen teams plus the host team (Kitchener Pride) competed in the event which included three days of round-robin play in pools of five teams each followed by a single-elimination playoff to determine the championship. All competing teams played a minimum of four games with the top two teams from each pool advancing to the playoffs.  International Softball Congress Area Tournaments was the process used to select and qualify the 19 teams that advanced to the showdown in Kitchener-Waterloo. Press releases for this year's ISC II Tournament will provide information on the dates, locations, costs, formats, and contact persons for those tournaments which will qualify teams to participate in the first I.S.C. II event.  These will be posted on this website in the very near future. The International Softball Congress would like to encourage all teams to enter the tournament in their area which can put them in contention for a spot in what promises to be a most interesting international event, which by the way will be hosted at the same time and the nearby location of Appleton, Wisconsin for this year's 2003 ISC II World Tournament.
