Curtis Rogers Buck Thomas Park, 26 USSSA Event Listings & the Two-Season Accounting Test

1. Why this record matters

Baseball Heaven’s daily series asks a consistent question: what can historical youth-sports schedules, listed entry fees and facility records establish, and what remains unverified without actual contracts, receipts and ledgers? Curtis Rogers appears in the documented Oklahoma baseball activity for 2009 and 2024, with Buck Thomas Park in Moore accounting for nearly all calculated entry-fee activity and a smaller 2024 listing at Sallisaw Sports Complex. That establishes a research trail, not continuous activity across the intervening years.

The completed Day 1–33 daily roster has been checked; Curtis Rogers has a separate earlier research-directory profile, but no director-focused installment in the completed daily roster. This Day 34 article is a new series installment, not a replacement for that profile.

2. Source hierarchy, provenance and director identification

• Controlling director totals: Baseball Heaven September 20 Hidden Valley Directors & Organizations Directory, a published summary of the later control dataset. Its Curtis Rogers entry lists Director ID 2221586, 26 events, 1,161 team-event entries, $110,822 calculated team-entry fees, 2,662 minimum-game equivalents and 4,321 estimated official assignments.
• Earlier detailed audit: archived AIUSSSA - HVIOG(2).csv (file library upload dated July 23, 2026), used only for historical event names, dates, URLs, divisions and provisional year-level calculations. This is not represented as the September 20 raw dataset.
• Official navigation: USSSA director search and USSSA baseball event search. A direct official Curtis Rogers biography or individual director-profile URL could not be independently verified; therefore none is supplied.
• Local facility corroboration: City of Moore, Buck Thomas Park; City of Sallisaw, Sports Complex; Sallisaw Youth League field directory.

Provenance warning: The September 20 control inventory reports 242 distinct nonblank director/organization values statewide. The earlier archived raw CSV contains 244. This is another reason to preserve version boundaries and not merge the two source populations silently.

3. Control totals and explicit reconciliation of discrepancies

The controlling directory also identifies all displayed calculated activity as baseball. The $110,822 is a reconstruction from advertised fees and recorded team participation, not proof of payments made or received. Team-event entries count a team again when it enters another event; these are not 1,161 unique teams. The earlier division CSV includes eight negative minimum-game equivalents and twelve negative officiating assignments for zero-team divisions; treating those as zero increases the earlier nonnegative sums to 2,558 and 4,195 respectively, still below the later control totals. The remaining differences cannot be assigned reliably by year or event without the September 20 underlying rows.

4. Two documented seasons — archived annual detail, not current annual control

The September 20 publication confirms 2009 and 2024 as the recorded seasons but does not provide a fully auditable event-by-event allocation of its additional 44 entries, 112 minimum-game equivalents or 138 estimated official assignments. The earlier CSV allocates $84,539 in calculated entry fees to 2009 and $26,283 to 2024; those same annual fee amounts appear in the existing research profile. No activity is inferred for 2010–2023.

5. The 26-event historical source register

Each row below represents one distinct event ID within a season. Multiple age divisions belonging to the same event are grouped before counting, preventing division-row inflation. Direct event links are carried forward exactly as recorded in the earlier dataset. They are source-navigation leads, not a representation that the live USSSA page or schedule details were independently accessible on November 14, 2026. Titles containing CANCELLED and zero-team events are retained for record completeness but treated differently in admission models.

Schedule / seeding limitation: Division-level schedule endpoints in the archived CSV sometimes contain a blank eventID parameter. Those incomplete URLs are deliberately not passed off as valid schedule evidence. Actual game schedules, completed game counts and 2024 cancellation outcomes require primary-source verification.

6. Facility, county and address verification

The City of Sallisaw states that its Sports Complex opened in May 2016 and is operated by the Sallisaw Youth League under contract with the Sallisaw Municipal Authority. The recorded Rogers-associated Sallisaw event is dated March 30, 2024, so there is no apparent pre-opening conflict in this director subset. Current facility administration does not establish who held concession or admission rights in 2024.

At Buck Thomas Park, the City of Moore identifies a municipal park at 1903 NE 12th St. The league’s facility page uses 1901 NE 12th St for its ballpark entrance. The city street address is used in this report; different park/ballpark address conventions should not be presented as evidence of separate sites.

7. Why zero-fee leagues and one cancelled listing matter

The earlier event register contains league, preseason and postseason listings in 2009 whose calculated entry fees are $0, alongside regular tournaments. Those records account for 259 team-event entries but cannot support a claim that no fees existed outside the USSSA posted entry-fee field. The 2024 event titled MYBA Swinging for the Fences – CANCELLED contains six listed team entries and $240 in calculated advertised fees; the title alone does not establish whether any payment was captured, refunded or retained.

Another 2009 listing, Oklahoma Super NIT, and the 2024 MYBA Spring League 2024 show zero listed teams. The archived minimum-games formula produces negative values in zero-team divisions. Reporting these as negative actual games would be misleading; the final headline uses the later September 20 modeled total, with this data-quality limitation disclosed.

8. Financial definitions and the no-double-counting rule

• Calculated advertised entry-fee exposure: 1,161 later-control team-event entries with per-division posted entry fees produces the published $110,822 aggregate. This is not a receipt ledger. The underlying 164-row September control needed to recompute that total was unavailable.
• Archived arithmetic check: earlier detailed ledger independently sums $110,822; the 2024 cancelled-titled listing contributes $240 to that amount. Removing only that listing would leave $110,582 in advertised calculations, not verified paid fees.
• Event net: the archived TotalEventNet field is a model output dependent on modeled gate, concessions and expenses. It must not be described as receipts, director income, taxpayer expenditure or profit.
• No addition across denominators: fee totals are a separate potential revenue channel from illustrated admission gross and concession net. They are not added to an asserted actual-revenue figure, and a team participating in multiple events is an entry for each event, not a distinct team or person.

9. Explicit gate-admission and net-concession sensitivity calculations

To avoid an unsupported extrapolation from long-running league calendars, the scenarios below use only the 19 earlier-archive event IDs with listed teams that are not titled league/preseason/postseason or CANCELLED. They contain 852 archived team-event entries. Seven excluded listings account for 265 other entries. For the two-day models, chargeable days for each included event are capped at the lesser of two and its inclusive calendar span: 1,691 archived team-entry-days. These are transparent researcher assumptions, not verified spectator headcounts or paid attendance.

Example base calculation: 1,691 team-entry-days × 2 hypothetical paying fans × $5 hypothetical admission = $16,910 modeled gate gross. Separately, 1,691 × 2 × $6 hypothetical concession spending = $20,292 modeled concession gross; 25% assumed net contribution margin = $5,073 modeled net concessions. These are two separate illustrative streams. Even their sum of $21,983 is not an estimate of total director profit, because numerous actual expenses, revenue-sharing obligations, refunds, taxes, vendors, grants and ownership questions are unknown.

Sensitivity: conservative gate is $4,260 with $852 net concessions; higher case gate is $40,584 with approximately $12,175 net concessions. The entire model is based on the older event-detail file; the 44 additional later-control team entries are not assigned to events or silently added to spectator days. None of these scenarios supports a claim that any venue charged admission or that any person collected these amounts.

10. What public operating records would be needed?

Actual cash receipts and public-facility economics would require records beyond searchable tournament listings: 2009 and 2024 facility-user contracts; concession agreements; fee schedules; gate/admission policies; deposit records; event settlements; municipal invoices and payments; field-maintenance and utility costs; refunds and rainout treatment; insurance and indemnification terms; bid or approval records where applicable; and annual financial reports required of any facility user group. This article does not assert that such records exist or that any particular operator was required to file a document without examining the governing agreement.

11. Public-facility oversight questions for Moore and Sallisaw

1. What were the documented authorization and user-group agreements for Buck Thomas Park during the 2009 and 2024 events?

3. Which organization, if any, was authorized to collect gate admissions for each event, and under what written fee schedule?
4. What provisions governed concessions, vendor revenue, net proceeds and facility-related expenditures?
5. Which city or municipal-authority bodies approved any facility-use agreements, and when?
6. Were public utilities, field maintenance, trash service, lighting, grading or improvements allocated between the municipality and user group?
7. Are annual financial reports, reconciliations or audits required by the applicable historical agreements?
8. How were tournaments prioritized relative to league play, rainouts, practice time and community access?
9. Are the terms used for 2009 materially different from those applicable in 2024?
10. What publicly available records document the 2024 cancelled-titled event and any fee refunds?
11. Do contemporaneous USSSA schedules or bracket results corroborate each event listed as hosted and completed?
12. For the 2024 Sallisaw event, what obligations arose under the Sallisaw Youth League / Sallisaw Municipal Authority facility contract?
13. Were admission prices disclosed to families in advance, and did any discounts or complimentary admissions apply?
14. Which records can distinguish advertised entry fees from payments actually collected and transferred?
15. Can local agencies provide a documented response correcting any venue, county, date, status or numerical mismatch in the public research record?
