- Coaches will be responsible to present a line-up
10 minutes prior to the scheduled start. Insuring
the eligibility of players is the responsibility of
the coach.
- A team may play with as few as eight and bat as
many as 11. If a team plays with eight, the team
must take an out when the ninth batting position
comes up.
- Game time is forfeit time.
- Games will have a 55 minute time limit. There
must be more than 5 minutes left in order to begin
a new inning.
- Games will be called after the:
3rd inning if a team has a 20 run lead.
4th inning if a team has a 15 run lead.
5th inning if a team has a 10 run lead.

- Team coaches must notify the official
scorekeeper of any line-up changes.
- Once a team has batted through the line-up, the

base runner to be awarded two bases from when the
ball is thrown.
- Batters will begin with a 2 ball/1 strike count.
There are no free fouls.
- Spectators will not be allowed on the playing

default.
- If a player becomes injured “time” will be
called immediately.
- If a runner is struck by a batted ball in front
of an infielder the runner will be out.
- Unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated.
Those instigating flagrant contact will be ejected.
Players ejected for unsportsmanlike conduct must
