PARENT AND PLAYER COMMITMENT: Baseball and Softball is a team sport. Managers, coaches and players count on each other to have a cohesive working team. Missing a team practice or game without informing the manager is an unexcused absent. A player with 2 consecutive or 3 total unexcused absents will be benched for a game. Further unexcused absents may lead to a player being dropped form the team. Players with 4 or more excused absence may also be dropped from a team.

SNACK SHACK DUTY: All parents/guardians will be assigned a minimum of one snack shack duty. Players will not be substituted for the parents/guardian at time of duty.

Parent no-show will be obligated to pay the league $40.

Obligations are to be paid before end of season. No trophy and yearbook will be provided till obligation is clear.

UNIFORM AND EQUIPMENT: Every player will receive a jersey and hat.

All male players are required to wear a supporter and we strongly recommend a cup, which is mandatory if he plays catcher.

Optional Uniform and Equipment

	Pants, belt, socks and practice jersey is optional. If you wish to purchase them please wait till your son or daughter is selected to a team and the manager recommends the colors so that the players looks alike. Names on jersey are optional. Teams will decide to have it or not. All optional uniform is at the players cost.
	Baseball cleats are recommended but not required. Young players may wear soccer cleats. No metal cleats for major players or below.
	Metal cleats are permitted for Junior/Senior/Big league.

GLOVE: We recommend purchasing a leather glove. This type would withstand the wear and tear and sometime the abuse a glove goes through during a season. Glove size for TBall to Major players range from 9” to 12” glove and can not be larger than 12”. Get a glove that fits the child’s hand that is not to big where it may fall off when the hand is by his or her side. A pitcher can not have white or grey on their glove.

BATS: NV provides bats but if you wish to purchase your own baseball or softball bat they must meet Little League specifications and standards. Check with league officials for more information.
