Future Stars Over Texas Spring Tournament

TOURNAMENT RULES
&
GENERAL INFORMATION

USFA Rules will apply



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.

Game Time: Pool Play games will be 55 minutes, finish the batter. Bracket play games are 70 minutes finish the inning. Progressive ITB in effect.

Uniforms: Uniform shirts must be numbered. No duplicate numbers allowed. No jewelry other than post type earrings in ears is allowed. Post type earrings in ears may be worn but must be taped. Umpires will be the judge in jewelry matters. If the umpire deems the earring unsafe, then the player must remove them with no argument.


Housekeeping: Please assist in keeping the dugouts clean for the next team, by picking up your trash after the game and placing it in the trash cans provided in the dugout.

Dugout Assignments: Teams listed on top of the game bracket chart will be in the first base dugout; however, teams with back to back games on the same field will not be required to change dugouts. Home team is determined by coin toss.
 


Weather Contingencies: In case of uncontrollable circumstances or interruptions due to weather, the Tournament Director reserves the right to alter the tournament format in any way necessary to reach a conclusion. This can include, but may not be limited to, shortened game times, fewer games guaranteed, or playing rule changes. Games interrupted might not be resumed. Everything possible will be done to get the players on the field as soon as possible.

Weather Hotline: We will have a Weather Hotline number that teams can call during the tournament for schedule information if the tournament is affected by weather. This number will be posted on the Main Tournament Board plus it will be located on the Showcase website.

Your Responsibility: It is ultimately the responsibility of the team managers and coaches to verify their schedule daily to make sure that no changes have been made. We do what ever we can to make it easy for you to be notified of changes, but you must do your part. Please be diligent on a daily basis, especially if there have been circumstances that could cause schedule changes. Also it is the responsibility of the team managers and coaches to know their field assignments, times, etc, for all games. The Official Tournament Board will be maintained at the Main Tournament Desks. Please verify your game schedule occasionally at the Main Tournament Desk. Teams that no-show a game risk being replaced in their other games, and also may not be invited to future tournaments.

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.


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.
