SCORE REPORTING

MANAGERS ARE NOT TO CONTACT USSSA WITH SCHEDULE REVISIONS

From the day of cancellation, the home team manager and the visiting manager will have until midnight of that day to schedule a make-up date and call it in to the scoreline. If a date is not called in by midnight, the Conference Supervisor will schedule the make-up game for the first available Monday, Tuesday or Thursday that both teams are not playing and when the home field is available.

RESCHEDULING GAMES

If a game is cancelled for any reason other than inclement weather with less than 24 hours notice, the league will be billed for the entire umpire fee of $50 for USSSA which in turn will be deducted from the home teams’ performance bond.

ILLEGAL GAME CANCELLATIONS

Cancellations due to inclement weather must be made before 3:30 pm by the home team manager notifying the USSSA assigner Floyd Bassett at 631-582-4383.Home team manager is also responsible for notifying Away Team Manager and calling the SCL scoreline of a cancellation before 3:30 pm. ‘NO FIELD’ is not a legal GAME DAY reason for a cancellation. The Home Team is responsible for securing an approved field or they will get a FORFEIT LOSS. Cancellations not due to weather must be made 24hrs before game time.

LEGAL GAME DAY CANCELLATIONS

Two League sanctioned softballs are to be supplied for each game by the home team. Both teams are responsible for bringing a plate mat to the field. The home team is required to put out the plate mat, if they don’t have a plate mat than their plate mat then the visiting team is required to put out the plate mat. If the game is played with the visiting teams plate mat they become the home team for that game. If both teams do not have a plate mat then both teams receive a forfeit for the game. No game should be played without a plate mat behind the plate.

GAME SOFTBALLS and PLATE MATS

Games will begin promptly at 6:30 pm. (Playoff games could start at 6:45 with Conference Supervisors approval). If either team is awaiting the arrival of their 8th player, a 15-minute grace period will be extended. When the 8th player arrives the game must start. If and when the 9th and 10th players come they can be added as soon as they are ready anywhere in the line-up that has not had an at-bat yet. If the grace period expires and the 8th player has not arrived, a forfeit is called against the shorthanded team. All games will have 1 and 1count and starting May 1st you get an extra foul.
