In ASA co-ed softball, you can throw out a runner at first base from the outfield, but there is a common unwritten rule that discourages throwing out a female runner at first base from the outfield.  We do not allow an outfielder to throw out a female batter at first base from the outfield. If the batter establishes first base and makes a turn towards second base, you are allowed to throw behind the runner.

We're currently at 9 teams and hoping for 1 more to emerge.  Stay tuned for updates!

Thirstys Mighty Ducks defeated The Hitmen by scores of 15-5 and 9-6 to capture their second straight League Championship. 

For the first time in many years we will be an 8 team league.   

Rosters will be capped at 20 players.   Choose wisely.

The regular season will be 14 games over the course of 12 weeks.

Playoff eligibility will be 7 games played or 6 calendar dates played.  The league office will monitor this throughout the season. If stats are not entered, a game was not played for that player. No exceptions.

The league office will review all exceptions to playoff eligibility as they are submitted.

If substitutions are needed during the regular season and no one on the roster is available, you must borrow from within the league,  or remove someone from your roster to add someone new. 

Playing with a non roster player will result in a forfeit.  No exceptions.  

Friends and family are allowed to be rostered to replace legacy corporate players from Metlife, Wegmans, Eli Lilly and SHI.  No other reason.  

The League currently does not have an extra innings rule. On May 24th, the Ducks and Bulls played extra innings starting with a runner on second base and 0 outs. This is a common rule in most leagues. Typically The League always just played extra innings out until a winner was declared. Both managers agreed to the "Runner on Second" rule as we did not have lights, there was looming bad weather, and there was another game after us. Please continue using this logic for games moving forward. If both managers agree to starting the 8th inning with a runner on second and 0 outs, relay this to the umpire and proceed. Otherwise, continue extra innings as normal.

2023 Rule Amendment

A foul ball with two strikes is an out.  No courtesy fouls.

Outfielders must remain 30 yards back from the deepest part of the infield when female players are at bat until contact.  Exact distance can be measured at Northbranch #1 by the outfield light poles. That is the marker that should be used.  There is no natural marker at Northbranch #2, so use best judgment or measure and use cones.  Please spread the word so that everyone is aware of the distance rule.
