Tournament teams. THE SCHEDULE: a. Participation. From April 1 to August 1, no player may play on any other tournament team while also being a player on a De Pere Baseball tournament team.

A regulation game is six innings, however no inning shall start after 1 hour 15 minutes. After the last out of the just-completed inning or half-inning, if the timer on the scoreboard reads 00, it means time has run out on the game. If the timer does NOT read 00 then the next half-inning should start EVEN IF it means the team leading will bat. There are no adjustments to the time limit for injuries or any other delay once the game has started. In case of tie game after 6 innings, the game is complete and ends in a tie. 2.
