EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THIS VERY WELL. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DRINKING, SMOKING AND/OR DRUG PERMITTED ON ANY OF OUR BALL FIELDS. THE PARKS DEPARTMENT ARE NOT JOKING AROUND ON THIS. THEY WILL BE OUT THERE WATCHING EVERYTHING GOING ON. DON'T THINK FOR A MINUTE JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE THEM THEY ARE NOT WATCHING. YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BEFORE AND WE ARE REINFORCING THIS ISSUE ONCE AGAIN. WE, REDNMF SOFTBALL LEAGUE, ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PERSON/S THAT IGNORE ANY OF THE PARKS DEPARTMENT RULES AND REGULATIONS. THE REDNMF SOFTBALL LEAGUE WILL NOT AND/OR SHALL NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR WRONG DOINGS. IF CAUGHT YOU WILL GET A TICKET SO PLEASE DON'T ALLOW THIS TO BE YOU!!!!!

1- Once again "ALL JERSEYS MUST BE WORN FOR THE REMAINER OF THE SEASON" for all returning teams and New teams that have there jerseys please continue to show the same respect and wear your jerseys as well if you got them... The league has explained the rules in regard to not having jerseys. So don't come to me complaining about the rules and regulations. We are all adults and must act accordenly, as well as, a little professionalizm to which we must uphold.

2- Parks department has explained to us that there are people going around stealing equipment, bags, money and other things from peoples area in the dugouts. So if there are any fans or random people that come over to watch the game you have the right to ask them not to hang out in your dugout. Be aware that we are not responsible for lost, stolen nor damaged items.

Next thing on the agenda is "Final goals and what we are looking toward to.":

1- June 2 2013 will be the final regular season game. Make sure you have checked your eligibilties for all your players. 8 games out of a 16 game season = 8wks of games are requirments. Don't get caught up with a player not being eligible for the play0ffs if they didn't make the necessary requirements to be there. No Excuses.

2- As of April 28th final rosters have been handed in. From this point on you can not play nor field any players that are not in your final roster handed in. If caught cheating the games that the illegal player has played in will end up as losses in the books no matter what the end result was. Be aware this is the reason why we have collected Lineup cards so that we can date back all games.

3- Some of you have asked why we have so many weeks off. Well lets explain:

   a} Mothers Day weekend - giving time off to celebrate with the ones that have given birth to us, ones that have taken care of you thru your life [those adopted or living with others for whatever reason.] and/or for the Mothers of your own children [Of course if you have any.].

   b} Memorial Weekend - They run a lot of tournaments so most fields are not available that weekend regardless.

   c} We are giving back something special to the league for June 9th 2013. 4yrs and running is great. As I continue to state each passing year we try to do many different things. Examples: Raffles for American Cancer Society, All-Star games with HR derbies, Trip to Puerto Rico for some players in our league and now........

We have been excepted to walk in the P.R. DAY PARADE, June 9th 2013. We are starting things off by inviting those that participated in the PR Trip that we took this year. Next to invite MGR's from every team. You MGR's can have 5 total People from your team to join us in the walk on PR Day. It will be $40 per person and $20 for the kids. This will cover the fee's and tshirts that are being given out for this special day. There is a curtain number of people that we are allowed to bring so once I get all the MGR's info then we can invite others. We would love to have everyone, but we are not allowed to bring soo many.

* $40 adults *$20 kids - requirements I need are full official names, addresses, phone #'s and size of tshirts..... Need this ASAP... Time stands still for no one and nor will I!!!!!

We  have given more then enough time for you to make sure arrangements are made. No excuses please... All playoffs and championship games will have 2 umpires manditory. We do not want anything falling on one mans hands, so to make sure there are more then one set of eyes you have two sets of eyes. That means ump fees will double for the first two games and regular fee if one more needs to be played. Best 2 out of 3 games move on. Wild card game is one game elimination then you will face the next opponent same day.

 Here we have NO RESPECT VS RED RAGE to start things off. No Respect splitting last week forcing The Corruptos out of first place with a lose. No Respect looking to continue that same path of winning both or atleast splitting to keep the focus on there team in a positive motion. Not looking to fall backward. Red Rage on the other end looking to battle to the end for that first place slot and a first round bye. They looking to not only be #1 but to win it all as well. They are not letting anything get pass them this time around. Lets see where things go.

1ST GAME: Red Rage had home field. 1st inning No Respect got things going with 5 runs. Red Rage responded back with a wooping 8 runs. 2nd inning both teams nothing. 3rd inning No Respect nothing. Red Rage adding 4 more to there lead. 4th inning No Respect adds one run. Red Rage added another 2 runs. Controling this game. 5th and 6th inning nothing from both teams. With one inning to go. No Respect need to come out strong. 7th inning No Respect could manage anything...

RED RAGE WINS 14-6

2ND GAME: No Respect with home field. 1st inning Red Rage got things started this time with 4 runs. No Respect nothing. 2nd inning Red Rage adding another run. No Respect nothing. 3rd and 4th inning nothing from both teams. 5th inning Game had to be called... It was raining all morning and it just became too much to continue playing. This game is given to Red Rage. Considered a complete game....

RED RAGE WINS 5-0

COMMISH CORNER: This day didn't start off that great with a shower going all morning. Wheather forecast was suppose to be off and on light showers in the am up til 10am but it seems mother nature had other plans then to stop raining. Although the rain was light at first games were on. No Respect and Red Rage came out to battle. Nothing team turned around. No Respect gave it there all with what they had. Red Rage just proved to be a little too much for them. Second game No Respect couldn't come away with any runs and ended up with an bruised player... Rain was becoming a little overwhelming but made it to the 5th inning. Unfortunately things could not keep going and ends with a complete game. This second game had the potential to become a good game, but they going to have to save it for another day..... Red Rage looking like they on a good path... Lets see whats to come..

Here we have CORRUPTOS VS SMALL BALLS. This may be the game of the day. Corruptos had lost some ground last week with the lost they gave up. Now looking to regain that first place. With them sweeping and Red Rage losing atleast one game they have a chance. Small Balls on the other hand are going to refuse to lay down too easy. They are looking to hold on to first place and battle to the very end. They too are seeking that chip and are not trying to let anyone stand in there way. This season these two teams have been making many strides and looking pretty good. Lets see if they may be the prelude to what the chip will be like. They see what happens. This could very well be a turning point for one of these teams as well...

1ST GAME:

Here we have TRI STATERS VS NO RESPECT. Tri Staters looking to not get eliminated from the playoffs. Looking to bring it to No Respect and taking advantage of them playing two games already. No Respect looking to win out. Playing 4 games in a day is rough, but also has its advantages. Meaning that they would be already warmed up for the next team. No Respect trying to come away this weekend 4-0, 3-1 or at the worst 2-2. Do they have it in them to come out strong? Will Tri Staters refuse to allow No Respect any respect at all? Lets see whats to come...

1ST GAME:

Here we have BAD INTENTIONZ VS BENCH WARMERS. As the records may show Bad Intentionz may have an easy game here. I would not count Bench Warmers out though. They have battled each and every week to the very end. They are relentless and they don't give in very easily. Bad Intentionz looking to make a statement in this game though with a bye week coming up for them next game. They are looking to finish strong. With 1st place out of reach for them they are atleast looking to salvage some respect up in here. Bench Warmers on the other side looking to take a deep breath and find a way to win. They will continue to battle, scratch and claw and show that the bench doesn't stay warm all the time. Lets see what happens...

1ST GAME:

Here we have FEARLESS LOBOS VS 99 PROBLEMS. This game was going to be a game where Fearless Lobos is looking to gain some ground so they will not be on the brink of elimination. They were going to come into this weekend looking to take down 99 Problems and give them more to think about. 99 Problems were looking to straighten out there season and put things into order within there team. Looking to add another win or two into there standings. Unfortunately due to not being payed up and there team falling apart at the same damn time 99 Problems team is no longer here for the last two weeks of this Spring Season. Of course we know and understand $$$ is what keeps your team going. $$$ is what allows you to have a scheduled game. $$$ is what makes things happen. Unfortunately $$$ is what also can become a problem amongst a team as well. Things are not perfect, but you have to manage your team a little better and make sure priorities are set before personal representation. As the commish alwayz says $$$ talks and BS walks (Excuse the expression, but its the truth and if the truth hurts then be it so!). This will mean that Fearless Lobos will have a bye and 2 wins due them this Sunday and the Bench Warmers will also have a bye week with 2 wins as well...

To 99 Problems it was a pleasure having you guys aboard. You guys have been an up and down team since day one. Where ever your team and/or players may end up we wish you well. Good Luck where ever you may end up.

As for a replacement team for them we already have one in play for the Summer season to come..

Speaking of the New 2013 Summer Season. League fee is $600. We will be collecting a deposit soon of $100 from every team that is returning from the Spring Season 2013 and $200 from every other team joining in no matter if they were here in the past or not.

New changes are in play for future seasons to come. We are looking to split the league into two divisions. Morning division and afternoon division. If we can get enough teams to play in both divisions then we will make it happen. We need a certain amount of teams to make it happen. During the course of that season when we get it going we will be notifying ever team that there is no options when we have inter-divisional play going on. This means AM VS PM, PM VS AM. It could be any # of teams to play in the AM from the PM slots and PM play AM so be ready at any given time. As alwayz we do make schedules at the beginning of the season and give everyone enough time to make any necessary arrangements needed to make those scheduled games. We will not do last min things to force the issue. This is so that no one is surprised when that time comes. Remember this is a goal that we are shooting for in the forseen future. Something that will make things more interesting and challenging.

This plan will also change how the playoffs will be formated and the Championships. This will be the over all winner of the AM division VS the over all winner of the PM division for the Championships. This will also mean that there will be additional PRIZE $$$ to be won. Winner of AM division will win the AM division Prize $$$ and PM same. Then a separate Prize $$$ for the over all Championships.  We will work on making this happen, but remember it takes all to help out. We can not do it alone. So if you know any teams looking for a new league to join or trying to bring back a team from past feel free to make it happen. We will do our part and we look forward to you doing yours. Thanks all and we will keep you in touch of when the meeting will be for the up and coming Summer Season....

OPENING DAY OF SUMMER SEASON WILL BE JULY 7TH 2013...
