In softball, a runner may leave off the base after the ball crosses the home plate.
Bunting is allowed.
There is a 5 run or 10 batters rule per inning except for the 6th inning.
Coaches and parents, please remember that the games are for the kids. The way that you act sets an example for the youth.
In the playoffs, you may put nine players in the lineup and make subs in the normal way.
All players must still play at least 2 innings.
We should all try to win, but not at the expense of weaker players. Remember they are
part of the team so treat them fairly. They all pay the same registration fee. If they did not want to play they would not have signed up.

We will publish rules for minors and t-ball shortly.
