Teams are classified by their offensive and defensive prowess, runs scored, runs against, USSSA Power Rating, by who they played and beat
 
* With all of the changes to the Georgia program this winter and all the corrections that needed to be made, no committee was name so that decisions could be made as fair as possible and as quickly as possible. Committees may be named at a later date.
 
+ (Plus) system explained. At the time Georgia came up with the plus system there were only two states classifying teams correctly, Georgia and Washington. This resulted in teams from these states not being competitive when they traveled. The plus system was created for two reasons, make the state more fair and competitive and to make Georgia teams more competitive while traveling. The question we get most often is "How does this make us more competitive if we are D+ and play D outside of the state?" the answer is if we went back to the old way to classify a team, that D+ team would NOT be D, they would be  C. This basically drops your team in class while traveling.
