All players present will be placed into a lineup and the lineup will not change throughout the course of the game with the exception of an injury and a player leaving early.

5 XII. Practicing a. Teams will be permitted to practice no more than two times per week. YMCA will only provide one, one hour practice per week. If a team chooses to practice twice a week it will be the coach s responsibility to secure a second practice site. I understand that the goal of the Mays Family YMCA youth sports program is to help the child grow to his/her fullest potential in spirit, mind, and body: activity helps the body grow; thinking advances the mind; and belief makes our spirit grow. I additionally understand that the key that holds the Mays Family YMCA youth sports program in line is the coaches and parents keeping winning in perspective and focusing on the development of the child. Coaching Behavior: Unsportsmanlike conduct of the players, coaches or spectators will not be tolerated. Any player, coach or spectator ejected will be suspended for at least one (1) game and will be placed on one (1) year probation. If ejected again during the probation, that person will be removed from the program. All violations will be documented and referred to the Youth Sports Committee. XIV: Safety I. Players Wearing Cast: In order to protect the safety of all players in the baseball program, any participant wearing a cast will be prohibited from participating in YMCA games or practices. Exceptions will be granted with approval from the Executive Director and documented approval from a Doctor. II. III. No throwing the bat rule: one warning (per team, per game) a coach must be notified that any player may be called out for throwing a bat. The warning can be forgone by the official if he feels that it was blatant and was meant to cause injury. Players must allow baserunners access to the base. Blocking a base can only take after the position player has caught the ball and not before ruling is determined by official/umpire. If an injured or bleeding player is discovered by the official while the ball is dead, the clock is stopped. The player shall be replaced for at least one down, unless the half time or an overtime intermission occurs. This is an official s time-out. If the official discovers a player who is bleeding, has an open wound, or has an excessive amount of blood on his uniform, play will be stopped after the play in progress has ended. After play has stopped, Rule 1 applies.

6 XV: Officiating: 1. The umpire will call balls and strikes from behind the catcher. Unless there is only one umpire. There will always be one certified umpire on the field. YMCA Staff may step in to umpire. 2. No Contesting Balls and Strikes 3. No Challenging called outs on the field. Please remember the Mays Family YMCA philosophy: Second The Child First, Sport
