FIELD MAINTENANCE: Each team is responsible to maintenance the field after your game. Failure to do so will result in a $25 fine 1st offense, $50 2nd offense, and team removal 3rd offense. Maintenance means to rake mound, home plate, drag field, and clean up your team trash. Both teams need to get together after game and make this happen. Home team needs to rake/drag field. Visiting team needs to do mound/plate and lines. Both teams must clean out dugouts. After the 4:00pm games are complete all fields must look like we never played there. We will enforce all field maintenance rules this year. Let your team know. ALL TEAMS ARE RESPONSIBLE!!
PAYMENTS: Each umpire shall be paid $65 cash per game. Each team is responsible to pay 1 umpire before the game starts. Each game will have two umpires.
1 UMPIRE SHOWS UP: In the event that one umpire shows up he shall be paid $100 for the game or $50 per team.
FORFEITS: If a team fails to show up and does not give the league 36hrs notice that team is responsible to pay both umpires. The forfeiting team must pay the fee in full by Wednesday at 5:00pm, failure to do so will result in their next game being forfeited.
GAME SHORTENED: If your game gets shortened due to rain/snow and does not get in 5 innings the umpires will refund you half of your fee. The game will start over on the make-up schedule and umpires will need to be paid in full again.
