“League Play-HIGH SCHOOL 2024”-
MISSION STATEMENT- The baseball program is created as a safe and competitive environment for the players, a turnkey operation for the coaches, an enjoyable atmosphere and experience for the parents, all working towards the goal of building our next generation of leaders through sport and community service.
League Divisions: 16U and 18U. We will be taking up to 15 teams combined for all divisions. All teams will be able to send in registration on December 1, 2023. We will keep updating teams on the website as they register to play. This being our 4th year we might fill up the 1st day or never reach capacity. Registration is time stamped for any confusion. Talk with Scott if you have any questions.
Safety and Insurance- “League Play” feels that player safety is the most important part of any sport. Each player is required to act in a way that promotes safety, not only for themselves, but their teammates and opponents as well. Each player participates in this program at his or her own risk. All coaches, fans, and parents are also entering the complex at their own risk. Genesis Sports Complex and all of its affiliates including Scott Martin are not liable for any injuries, foul balls or other damage occurring at the complex. It is the sole responsibility of the player or player’s parents to ensure that some type of medical insurance covers their player.
Competition- “League Play” is designed to be a competitive league for teams. The league is played on Tuesdays and Wednesdays we will start June 18th go every week until July 23rd . We will have 1 week off July 4th. This will be 5 weeks of double headers or 10 games. This will allow for teams to keep playing games through tournaments in June and July. WE WILL NOT PLAY MONDAY OR THURSDAY’S. The games times are 3:30pm, 5:45pm and 8:00pm. 3 teams on each field per night. (A Vs. B), (A Vs. C) and (B Vs. C). Two umpires on the field.
Coaches- Coaches will be expected to lead their team both on and off the field. Getting ejected from the game is part of Baseball. Getting ejected with F’bombs or the like will result in suspension.
Communication- Each team is required to have at least 3 emails that are current and that are monitored on a timely basis. “League Play” communicates through email and it is imperative that communication during the season is done on a regular basis.
Weather- There are three ways to learn about rain delays or cancellations. 1st- Our website will have information on the site when inclement weather is affecting play and 2nd Coaches, Parents and fans can “Like” us on Facebook and 3rd the coaches on record will receive an email if we cancel any games. We do not make a decision until 4pm of game day. We usually do not get rained out but we do however get “lightning out” We are playing on turf so expect most games to be played but the lightning will be a big factor.
League Championship- “League Play” will crown league champions for the 2023 season. 1st place teams in each “single” division will receive costume T-shirts designed by their own team. “League Play” championship will be decided by the following: 1) Win/loss percentage 2) Head to head record 3) total runs allowed 4) Total runs scored 5) Coin toss. It is the responsibility of both teams to turn in their scores on a game by game basis. The league championship will be decided on July 23rd 2024) regardless of the amount of games played. You also must keep a “Gamechanger” of the game. www.gc.com This is a FREE service that will allow you to post scores.
