Recent Rule Changes:
  • Outfielders are to obey the “curtsey belt rule” for all batters. For those that are unfamiliar, the “courtesy belt” restricts outfielders from coming in no more than 30 or so feet from the infield. The purpose of this rule is to prevent teams from taking advantage of weak hitters by adding extra players into the infield. It’s an act of sportsmanship that should go unsaid in an amateur non-competitive league. Rescinded 7/31
