Rule Changes #

We believe the following are the primary rule changes that will be different from what we are used to:

  1. This tournament will be played under modified tee ball/coach pitch rules:
    • Coach will get 3 pitches; the batter cannot strike out.
    • If hit, the ball is live.
    • If not hit, the player will have up to 2 swings off the tee.
  2. Overthrows: there is no overthrow rule. The ball remains live.
  3. Time: 55 minutes for pool games (finish the batter) and 60 minutes for bracket games (finish the inning; must have a winner).
  4. Run rule: 5 runs per half inning
    • Pool: 10/8/6 runs 2/3/4 innings
    • Bracket: 10/8/6 runs after 3/4/5 innings
  5. Pitching:
    • 35 feet to pitching rubber; 8-foot circle.
    • The position of the player pitcher (defensive) before the pitch shall be outside the pitching circle and behind the pitching rubber.
    • Coach cannot coach from mound. Coach can speak to them prior to entering box.
  6. Base Running: runners may begin to advance when the pitcher releases the ball. No leading off, no stealing. If the pitched ball is not put in play, runners must return to their base.
  7. Coaches
    • Defense: Two coaches can stand in the outfield in foul ball area only, one on each side. (Left side and right side)
    • Offense: There will be no coach at home plate to align hitters. Hitters must address the ball by themselves.
  8. Background checks: Anyone in dugout or field must have one
  9. Stopping play: Play is stopped on defense by stopping the lead runner. Once the lead runner has been stopped, the ball is no longer in play, the ball is thrown to the pitcher’s circle and no runner may advance.
  10. No protests to umpires.
  11. Bats allowed? We are working on clarifying this, but we believe that as long as it is stamped for softball, you should be good (USSSA, for example). Just don't bring a baseball bat.
  12. Scorekeeping? We are trying to find out what will be required for scorekeeping.

Fundraising #

We are still figuring this out, but we plan to get jerseys, belts, and socks for the girls. We hope to fundraise and/or find sponsors to cover everyone's cost for this plus the tournament expenses.

If the business sponsor needs it for a tax write-off, they can write the check to HCGSA (Henderson County Girls Softball Association) with memo "6U All-stars sponsorship". Please let us know if a business is doing this so we can make sure the league allocates the money accurately.

If it doesn't matter, you are welcome send to coach Lauren on Venmo, CashApp, or Paypal and just put in message "6U Allstars donation":
