3) you can bat up to 14 players in all 3 leagues. In coed you can bat as many girls as you want but there has to be to be a minimum of 4 guys in your lineup. In coed you can also bat an extra guy as long as there isn't a girl on the bench. Example 4 girls 5 guys.
4) you can start a game with 8 players. If you start with 10 players you must end the game with 10 players. If you start with 9 you can at any point add a 10th player. If you start with 11 and someone gets hurt or ejected that spot in lineup is an automatic out. If another person is hurt or ejected and your under 10 players you automatically forfeit that game.
5) current run rule is 20 after 4 12 after 5. Effective fall season 2017 we are changing the run rule to 20 after 3 15 after 4 and 10 after 5.
6) if your ejected from a game you are to leave the complex. You are to be out of sight and sound. You have 5 minutes from the point of ejection to pack up and leave the complex. If you refuse to leave within the 5 minutes your team forfeits that game and you have 2 minutes from that point or your team will forfeit the 2nd game as well.
7) ejection policy. If your kicked out of a game you sit that game +1. Your 2nd ejection you are suspended for 1 week. Your 3rd ejection is 1 month 4th is 1 yr from that date. Effective rule change starting in fall of 2017. If your ejected from hook furey weeknight you cannot play until you serve your game suspension in the league you were kicked out of. So you won't be able to play coed or Sunday until you sit your game in hook weeknight. If a tournament is scheduled that weekend that also means you cannot play in that tournament as well. This also includes cnc challenge.
8) if you threaten a player in any form it's a 1 week suspension. If you leave your dugout or the side of the field your on to go after a player it's a 30 day suspension. If there is contact of any kind you will be suspended for 1 yr. All tournaments included.
9) if you threaten an umpire it's 30 days automatic. Any form of contact with an umpire is a 1 yr suspension with a committee review at the end of that yr to see if your suspension will be lifted. If committee votes no on reinstatement then you receive another yr. No exceptions.
10) if at any point you threaten a player with use of a weapon it's 30 days. If you attempt to hit someone with any weapon of any kind you will be banned for life and we will contact the police and charges will be filed.
11) any can,bottle,cooler or any form of alcohol on or in the complex are prohibited. If it's seen you will get a warning first if it's seen again your team will forfeit that current game.
12) teams are encouraged to have there fees before the start of the season. Effective fall 2017 teams have till week 4 of regular season to be paid in full. If they're not they will be taken off the schedule immediately until their fee is paid.
13) if your team forfeits 4 games they are taken off the schedule and forfeit the remaining games on there schedule.
14) all summer rosters must be posted before June 1st. That doesn't mean you can post on June 1st. It means you have to have them posted by may 31st. From this point on rosters must be posted on message board only. It's not hard to apply for a password.
15) playoff eligibility is half the leagues regular season games. The only exceptions are injury, military or public service and that's it.
16) fall is open roster but eligibility rules still apply.
17) if you are on suspension you are not allowed at the complex at anytime during that time. This means warm ups, batting practice etc. Sight and sound means sight and sound. If you don't follow this rule 30 days will be added on to your suspension immediately from that day. Tournaments included. This means nowhere near the complex.
18) any complaints about an umpire are to be called into Donald Kirby. I will not take anymore calls regarding umpires.
19) any player complaints are to be directed to your player rep Creighton (doc) dimeranda or players President of code of conduct Joe Anthony. I will not field any complaints or appeals unless they are handled through the proper channels.
20) if your not going to be able to field a team. You have till 1hr before game time to call in your forfeit. If you don't do it effective 2017 you will be responsible for paying the umpire $20 travel expenses and won't be able to play until it's paid. If you forfeit at field and didn't know you were going to be short the league will pick up the cost.
21) any threat to a committee member is an automatic 1 yr suspension. Any physical contact is a lifetime ban. No exceptions.
I hope everyone takes the time to read these rules. Now that they are out there for everyone to see I don't want to hear anything from anyone about not knowing what the rules are. Here they are so you now know the consequences of your actions and don't want to hear we are picking on anyone or singling anyone out. If the rules as written are followed their shouldn't be a problem. Thanks again.
