- ASA/USA SITE HAS THE ILLEGAL LIST. 

- ANY BAT NOT ON THE BANNED LIST IS LEGAL. 

- A LIST CAN ALSO BE EMAILED TO YOU.  CONATCT US.

A player caught with an illegal bat will be suspended.  If there was a hit, it will revert to an out.  If less than two outs, all runners revert to the base they held at the beginning of the play.

DO NOT USE ILLEGAL BATS!!!!!!

- REMEMBER, IT IS TEAMS RESPONSIBILITY, NOT THE LEAGUE TO PROVE PLAYOFF ELIGIBILITY

Thank you for your continued support.  Your participation makes our league one of the best.

We wish all our players, managers and their families a safe and healthy season.

=================================================================

As always, in case it rains before Sunday, we ask the teams to bring equipment to help fill in the holes. 

We work hard getting the water off the fields, but we need help.

BRING RAKES, SHOVELS AND BUCKETS TO THE FIELD.  THANK YOU.

IMPORTANT:  All teams are responsible to bring bases. If you do not bring them to the field and your opponent does, you lose your home game first game.   In the playoffs, if you do not bring bases, you will not be home team first game.  So it is important to bring bases.  If you need bases, you can purchase a set, contact Michael.  Too many teams are not bringing them to the field.

Thank you for your cooperation. 
If there is a one umpire game, each team umpire fee will be $90 per team.

BYES:  April 21 = Tune Squad
