CONDUCT
Coaches, if we have to remove one of your fans from the complex, the head coach will also be ejected for that game. Fan will not be allowed to return for that event.
Any pattern of badgering of an umpire, other fans, coaches, players, directors, gate workers, etc...will result in being escorted from the park by the local PD. Coaches/Spectators, if you put your hands on an umpire/tournament staff, you will be prosecuted & vice versa for umpires/tournament staff to coaches/spectators. Tournament Directors have the discretion to have anyone removed from the park.

$12 for a daily pass
$7 for a senior/military

Any patron that uses profanity toward a gate worker or enters without paying will be removed from the park by the local PD.
No sunflower seeds are allowed at any complex. Teams could face a $500 fine from the city and/or a forfeit from the tournament. This is for players, coaches & fans.
Music must be played at a respectful volume
NO steel spikes at any complex with turf.
Coaches must check in at the gate..only 4 for coach pitch & 3 for kid pitch
Armbands must be shown to re-enter the complex
Protest fees are $300 - No exceptions.
For protest of players not on the roster or illegal age or any other player eligibility question, the protest must be initiated from the 1st pitch of the game to before the 1st pitch of the 2nd at bat of the player who is being protested. Once a player has had 1 pitch thrown to him of his second at bat, he is no longer eligible to be protested.
Any other protest that isn't a player eligible protest, must be done between the first pitch of the game and end of the game(unless the last out of the game causes a protestable situation,in this case the coach who wants to protest must call it to the umpires attention before they leave the field).You get the $300 back for a successful protest.
We will provide baseballs for each game. However, teams need to be prepared to throw in game balls if the umpire runs out until we get more. Also, teams are responsible for retrieving foul balls & returning them to the field.
14U grade exception players playing down in 13U must use a --3 bat
13U grade exception players playing down in 12U must use a -5 or -3 bat
