Rules

Player Eligibility

A player’s age on August 31, 2025 will determine their division.
Players are not eligible if they turn the next age before May 1, 2026
We do not check birth certificates as a standard procedure. If you wish to contest a player's age, this must be done at the home plate meeting before the game starts. Please have your birth certificates readily available; failure to provide them will result in a forfeit, although the game will still be played
