Topic: Rules of the game
Discussion: Batting Box rule change Left handed player called out correctly, entirely within the box

If the plate is not a strike then this rule works fine, with the plate a strike the back foot limit and front of the plate are too close to each other, impossible to protect and stay behind the front of the plate.

I am against this rule, it fixes nothing and ruins much. My team had momentum killed by this rule and will make it my mission to take my two teams and sponsor money to another association if I continue to have the same experience.

I bet this rule was created in a league where the plate was not a strike so you had a little room to protect the front of the strike zone, in a league where the plate is a strike and the low, sometimes not-called illegal pitches, this rule takes the bat out of the batters hands and changes the game and experience. It was not well thought out.

Discussion: California 50 AAA Team looking for Outfielders For Sacramento Aug - Fri 4/ Sun 6

We're a pretty good 50+ AAA team out of California, have a few rings over the last few years. Looking for outfielders to join us in Sacramento for Western Championships and then possibly Vegas later in the year if it works out.

Discussion: Looking for 50+ AAA player to join California team in Rockin' Reno June 2nd thru 4th

We're looking to add a player for Reno, preferably an outfielder who can run a lot but will consider all positions. Player must have a AAA tag or lower as there are already 3 major players on the roster for Reno. The team is registered, paid for by sponsor so just need you to show up and help us win. 50's are playing in Carson City this year.

Discussion: Las Vegas World Championships 50's is a 4 day tournament this year?

I know that the East-West game typically took place on the Thursday of this tournament week but this year we will start seeding on Thursday? 50's play Sept 29th thru Oct 2nd, this has always been a 3 day tournament, can someone confirm we need to be ready to play on Thursday?

Discussion: Combined division at Jim Sherman

I agree, as a 50AAA team manager entered in this division it's discouraging to find we'll be going up against a 55 Major+ team and a couple 50 Major teams. We are an Oregon team and look forward to this tournament but are just a decent 50AAA team and can't compete with these other teams and will no longer attend under this format moving forward.

Discussion: Oregon 50 AAA Team looking for players for Spring Championships in St George Utah March 24-27

Oregon 50 AAA team looking for a player or two to play in St George for Spring Championships. Our biggest need is outfielders but are open to other positions as well. Tournament fees are paid, just show up and play. We are a competitive team that has had success over the last few years. This could become a long term relationship if you are a good fit.

Best way to reach me is by text message - Paul 541-227-9774

Discussion: Certificate of Awards - Champions - Invalid Coupon Code

We won the 50AAA Jim Sherman in Salem Oregon and one of the things that we received was a card with coupon codes for a discount for Demarini or Louisville Slugger gear.

When I tried applying these codes to the Demarini and Louisville Slugger websites we get this error - Coupon code "XXXXXXXX" is not valid.

Demarini was a tournament sponsor, wondering if anyone can help us resolve?
