Official rules/notes will be emailed soon!
  • 5 teams:  FBC, FUMC (A), FUMC (B), Greywood Heights, Elmont
  • Field minimum 3 women at all times.
  • Batting line up/top of order must be boy, girl, boy, girl, boy, girl, etc. until all girls are used.
  • * Big to-do on Sunday between Rodney (FUMC) and Steve (Elmont) regarding line-up of all players batting vs. max. amount of players on the roster batting.  If you want to put your 2 cents in, do it now!
  • 5 home runs per team per game until other team hits 5.
  • Take care of the fields -- drag on Sundays so we can play on Mondays.  Need to buy chalk.
  • Will only have 1 umpire for games.
  • League provides softballs -- boys will use 12", girls will use 11".
  • ASA rules on height of pitch.
  • 3rd foul hit = out.
  • Start with 0-0 count.
  • Play each team twice with 2 weeks of byes.  Start 8/29/11 and end 11/01/11.  Tournament for 1st-4th place is 11/07/11.  (5th place will not be in tournament.)  Game 10 will be played on 11/01/11 instead of 10/31/11.
  • Games will be 55 minutes or 6 innings.
  • Provide own protective gear, if needed (helmets, catcher mask, etc.).
  • $300 per team.  Use matching t-shirts (i.e. from vbs, mission trip, or other church function, etc.).  NEED NUMBERS ON BACKS.  Also, can get sponsorship and put logo/info on back of shirts if desired.  Others will be using Ken Wappess to make shirts:  Ken@skytex.net 214/504-6609.  (His wife is going through some medical needs, and they want to give him their support.)
  • Need line-up (roster of player name and player number) for each game.  Coach can be coach or coach/player.
  • Need scorekeepers for each team to sit side-by-side (non-players; in the stands) each game.
  • Would like teams to either come early and support the teams playing before them, or stay after to support the teams playing after them.
  • Practice -- we can practice anytime -- schedule one for this Sunday evening?  One of the methodist teams will be using a field at 6:30.
  • This league has the sole use of the 2 fields at Forrest Moore park until the end of the tournament.
