Umpire: Games will be umpired. The umpire is to be treated with respect at all times. a. Youth Umpire: The intention is that the games will be a learning experience for the umpires as well as the players, and coaches are responsible for the behavior of parents and other fans. b.

2 9. Home Team/Third Base Dugout: Home team will normally occupy the third base dugout. An exception is that in the event of a double header, teams will not change dugouts, regardless of whether they are the home or visiting team for the second game. 10. Warm-ups Prior to Game: Batting practice, pitching practice, and infield practice are NOT allowed in fair territory of the infield, prior to the start of the game. Warm-ups are confined to foul territory of the infield and the grass outfield in fair or foul territory. Players, Coaches, Substitutes 1. Players: A player is defined as any youth of the proper age for their division of play. A team must have the minimum number of players present in the dugout or team area to start or continue a game. The minimum number of players is six (6). A team may have a maximum of 10 players on the field on defense at any time (6 infielders and 4 outfielders). However, additional fielders may be allowed if agreed by both coaches. If a team does not have six (6) players and subject to the approval of both coaches, players may be shared between teams so that the girls can still play a game. 2. Players Arriving Late: If a player arrives late to the game, that player shall be inserted in the last position in the batting order. Players may be inserted in the line-up at any time they arrive. 3. Players Leaving Early: There shall be no penalty if a player must leave early. 4. Players from a Lower Division Filling Out a Roster: When a team is short of players for a particular game, players may be brought up from a lower division of the league to fill out the roster up to 10 players. The team should attempt to provide the player(s) with its team uniform to wear. If none are available, the player(s) shall wear her/their own team s uniform. Duplicate jersey numbers are allowed. 5. Defensive Substitutes: Defensive substitutions may be made at the coach s discretion and do not need to be reported to the opponent. 6. Injured Players: An injured player shall not play in a game. 7. Attendance of an Adult Female: A mother or other responsible adult female associated with the team shall be in attendance at all team practices, games, and meetings. Equipment 1. Uniforms: Players shall wear the same uniforms. An exception is when a player from another division is filling out the roster for another team, the player shall wear the uniform from her own team even though it may be different in color. A pitcher shall be allowed to wear sleeves under her uniform jersey so long as they are not yellow. All other players may wear a solid color shirt under their uniform. Page! 2 of 5!

3 2. Sweatshirts or Jackets on Cold Days: Sweatshirts or jackets with or without numbers may be worn in the field and up at bat on cold days and nights. If numbers are not visible, the player s number on her jersey must be shown to the opposing team, when requested. Colors of sweatshirts or jackets need not match. 3. Jewelry and Medical Alert: Jewelry shall not be worn during an official game. Medical alert bracelets and necklaces are not jewelry and may be worn but must be taped to the body in such fashion that the medical alert information is visible. 4. Pitcher s Glove Color: A pitcher s glove may be of one solid color or multi-colored. If a pitcher s glove has yellow or optic yellow on it, it will be up to the coaches at the game to determine whether the pitcher s glove would be distracting to a batter, and if so determined, should be replaced. a. By ASA rule in the 10U division and older, a pitcher s glove may be of one solid color or multi-colored as long as the color(s) are not the color of the ball being used in the game being played. Since yellow balls are used exclusively in games, a pitcher s glove shall not have any yellow or optic yellow color on it. If a pitcher is found to be using a non-conforming glove, the umpire will stop the game and require the pitcher to obtain a conforming glove. This language is put here for preparation for future years. 5. Replacement Gloves and Mitts: If during play, a glove or mitt breaks or is otherwise determined to be unusable, the player may immediately and without delay obtain a legal replacement glove or mitt and is entitled to three warm-up catches prior to restarting the game. 6. Batting Helmets and Defensive Face Masks: A batting helmet with a chin strap and a NOCSAE approved face mask shall be worn by all offensive players when in fair or foul territory on the playing field. Please see Club specific rules regarding other safety equipment required in this division. 7. Cleats: Metal cleats are not allowed. Base Running: 1. Bases: 60 Feet maximum. 2. For the first 2 innings there will be a 4 runs per inning per team maximum.
