Check in Information: Each Team MUST check-in at the Main Tournament Desk. At check-in, teams must submit a copy of their teams insurance. Teams will receive their team packet at that time; which will have other important information in them.

Injuries: Limited Emergency First Aid supplies will be available at the Tournament Desk at each location. It is recommended that each team bring their own first aid supplies. If a injury occurs, the Tournament Director should be called for assistance, and in severe cases a Ambulance will be called. Any Player, Coach, Umpire or Spectator who when injured seems to have been unconscious for any amount of time or who are experiencing neck/head injuries should not be moved off the field.

Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Managers/coaches are responsible for their own conduct and for that of their players, assistants and spectators. Abusive language and/or unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated in any degree. Noisemakers, whether homemade or store bought, are not allowed. Coaches, players, and spectators may be ejected from the game if in violation of this rule. The initial "cooling off period" is the rest of the game. Any manager, coach, player or spectator who is ejected from a game may/will have their behavior reviewed by the Umpire in Chief and/or the Tournament Director, and the "cooling off period" may be extended from one game to the rest of the day and even to the rest of the tournament, depending on severity of conduct. Any manager, coach, or spectator who is ejected must leave the park for the duration of the cooling off period. A player who is ejected will be restricted to the dugout for any games during the cooling off period and will not be allowed to play in any games in any manner for the rest of the cooling off period. This is a severe penalty so be on notice that misbehavior on the part of players, coaches or spectators will not be tolerated. Managers/coaches may be held responsible for players and spectators behavior also. If any one who has been ejected fails to follow umpire instructions or fails to abide by the cooling off period, the team may be ejected from the tournament.

Warmup Area: Pre Game Warmup is to be conducted only in the designated warm up areas. Any team may use any of these allowed areas.   In Addition there is to be no throwing of balls or batting in or near the sidewalk areas. There is to be no hitting of balls or throwing of balls into permanent or temporary fencing. Any player warming up a pitcher must wear a catcher's mask.

Lightning Detection System:  If the park does not have an automated notification system, tournament or park staff will relay the warning and the all clear to the umpires. Please cooperate.

Double Wide First Base: Double wide first bases are in use at all of the Parks we are using. The batter-baserunners are to use the foul side base, while the defensive player must use the fair side base. However, if the throw is coming from foul territory, then the batter-baserunner uses the fair side base, and the defensive player uses the foul side base. Avoid collisions at all costs please make sure to tell your players about this. If they get hurt and cannot play then they lose their chance at being recruited… Play it smart!!!

Cancellation/Refund Policy: If the number of games is shortened or cancelled due to uncontrollable circumstances, such as weather, refunds will be given based on the number of games played. 1 Game played = $100 refund. 2 Games played = $50 refund. 3 or more games = no refund.
