Safety Rules & Code of Ethics
To ensure the well being of all players, listed below are some of the key safety rules and ethics that must be adhered to by all players:
Jewelry – Players are not allowed to wear any jewelry during practice or games (including jewelry intended to be permanent). Please make sure to have your child remove earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. before they leave home. Be aware that officials and supervisors on duty have the authority to disallow any player from participating when they feel it necessary for the safety of the player, her team or opponents. The league is not responsible for theft or loss of property.
NOTE: Medical Bracelets/Medical Medals – Any player required to wear a medical bracelet or medical medal will be permitted to do so, however, they must be taped to the body with medical data visible.
Food – Eating of food, snacks or gum is not allowed during practice or games. However, players are strongly advised to bring a beverage to each practice and game to keep them properly hydrated.
Poor Conduct – Players that willfully intimidate or harm another player will be under immediate review for dismissal from the league by the Board. This is necessary to give our girls an environment that is free from bullies and fear of getting intentionally harmed.
Equipment – Players are permitted and encouraged to bring their own equipment, however, that equipment must meet the standards of the ASA (2004 issue or newer). Helmets must be worn when batting and must have a ASA face mask attached. Cleats are not allowed to have metal spikes and bats must be Softball (not baseball) and be proper size for the player. If you have questions regarding your child’s equipment, please speak to your coaches. Be sure to mark your child’s equipment with their name.
Be Alert – It is important players be alert and pay attention during practice and games. Not doing so leaves our girls with the potential to be harmed by a stray ball. Also, being aware of what is going on during practice and games helps to strengthen the team as a whole and creates trust amongst their teammates.
*** Parents are NOT ALLOWED in the dugout or inside the fenced area ***
If you have questions or concerns, be sure to speak to your coaches.
