This is a reminder players cannot have alcohol on the benches or near the playing field as we will not risk losing our license and the use of our diamonds!  Umpires will be enforcing the NO ALCOHOL rule.

Note, this is not new, it is in the rules!  Any further complaints of teams not listening to the umpires when they are asked to remove the alcohol; or teams leaving empty cans, bottles and garbage, etc. will risk fines.   A second offence could result in forfeiting your game!

Teams are expected to clean up after themselves and RESPECT THE UMPIRES!  Please read your rules!

The chance of OCSA losing the use of our diamonds is unacceptable and a risk we are not willing to take.  Please advise your players, your cooperation is appreciated!

This a reminder that when the weather is not cooperating, teams should check the website AND the City of Edmonton Field Status to determine if the games are going ahead.  If the fields are "OPEN" on the City of Edmonton website, games are still on schedule. Teams are required to show up at the diamonds and it's at umpire's discretion whether a game will be played. The League will reschedule rainout games.

Games CANNOT be cancelled between teams without notifying the League. 'No shows' when games have not been Postponed by the league will be recorded as a forfeit.

If the weather takes a turn for the worst early in the evening on game day, it is recommended that you check the website as the remaining games could be postponed. Games that are suspended during play with less than 5 innings will be rescheduled by the league.

Please read the rules at Oil City House Rules and Field Closure Guidelines listed on this page for further clarification. Thank you.

There have been some concerns expressed with some of the field conditions. Click here to go the City of Edmonton Sportsfield Service Levels which shows what their standards are for field maintenance. If you have any further concerns, please call the City at 311.

In situations when the weather is a factor and the potential is for games to be postponed, please use these guidelines:

1.  Regularly check the City of Edmonton Field Closure Line the day of your game. The status is updated by 4:00pm Monday – Friday so use this time as your cut-off. Advise your players that a decision to play or not should be final when the line is updated by 4:00pm as information could change right up until that time.

• If you go to the Field Closure Web page, there is a link there to be set up for email and/or RSS feed notification if you are unable to check the line regularly yourself. You will be notified immediately when the status of the fields is changed.

2.  Regularly check the website schedules as close to game time as possible.

• If the City OPENS the fields, and in your opinion the weather is still unsuitable; you are required to be at your game and the final decision of whether or not to play will be determined by the umpire.

               -    The league takes into consideration the potential for injury to players; AND

               -    The league takes into consideration the potential for damage to field surfaces.

PLEASE DO NOT CALL THE LEAGUE - THE WEBSITE WILL BE UPDATED!

If the field surfaces are damaged during use, the league is responsible for costs to repair those damages and could have their booking privileges revoked.

If the games have been postponed, DO NOT use the diamonds!

These games will be rescheduled by the league. The captains will be notified and the schedules will be updated on the website.
