To start off with the design, it's 2005, but their design is maybe...year 2001 at the latest. Rounded corners, nice bright blue colors and stupid JavaScript are not in style anymore. And it sure as hell isn't retro yet. To give you an idea of how up-to-date they are, the font of style they're using for their links and titling is the same font we used back in 2000. Now, I'm not surprised when I see it on small little sites in Indiana, but these guys are pretty legit in the world of wiffleball.

The good part of the site is their database for leagues and players but the only problem is that anybody can sign up. There are no restrictions. Which just means those sections are going to become polluted with pointless entries and stupid leagues that serve no point. It's like the Wiffleball Network database. Have fun searching for links on that site and have fun searching for leagues on the NEWA site.

They serve a big purpose in supplying people a decent area to find out about tournaments, but set such a low standard with their website.

Final Say: Unless you want to spend $100 per person to play against arrogant wiffleball players, don't bother.

The first thing I saw when I hit this site up was a warning that, since I wasn't running IE, I may experience "reduced functionality." Way to start things off on the right foot, guys. The first thing I decided to do was watch the video being pimped on the front page. Twenty nine megs later, I started watching what ended up being nothing more than a commercial for the sport with these guys telling me how great they are. I then moved on to the rest of the site, determined to see evidence of their awesomeness. I never found it.

What I did find was one of the worst message boards I have ever seen. The whole board took about 2 minutes to load, which is about 1:56 longer than any message board should take to load. The first post I click on started like this: "Wow, you so msart you clueless sacl of shit." Worth the wait? I'll get back to you. The league may be very large and successful, but this site makes them look like amateurs. The design is weak and uninspired and the only link I found interesting was the "Past Events" link, if for nothing else than the pictures. However, 75% of them were blurry and/or out of focus.

Final Say: These guys should take some of the money they want us to think they make and buy a decent camera.
