📖 City League Rules & Expectations

To help ensure a positive experience for everyone, we will be sharing our City League rules at the Spring Opener. A few key reminders:

- This is a recreational league focused on development, learning, and fun

- Coaches and board members are parent volunteers dedicating their time to help players grow

- Umpires and league organizers are also doing their best to support a great season

We kindly ask all families to:

- Show respect to players, coaches, umpires, and other spectators

- Encourage all athletes, not just your own

- Help us create a positive and supportive environment

👕 Jerseys & Equipment

Jerseys will be distributed by coaches at next week’s practices.

For your player’s first practice, please make sure they bring:

- A face mask (required)

- A glove (required)

- A water bottle

- A batting helmet (if they have one)

- Warm clothing, as practices may be held in cooler weather

Coaches will have a limited number of extra batting helmets available if needed; however, face masks and gloves are required for all players.

Cleats are not required, but if your player chooses to wear them, they must be rubber cleats only (no metal cleats allowed).

Players should not wear shorts to practices or games, as they will be learning proper sliding techniques throughout the season. This is especially important for the Majors division (3rd–5th grade), but is strongly recommended for all divisions.
