Age Groups by location

HOME RUN AND SKILLS CONTEST DETAILS (All players that win 1st and 2nd will receive awards)

Immediately after the Opening Ceremonies Friday evening, the participates and anyone else that would like to watch should make their way down to the field. If the players are late, we will proceed without them so they need to be at their designated field ready to go.

For the speed contest, each age group will have 3 designated folks keeping speed on their phones. One rep will be with RBI and the other 2 can be parents or coaches. Each score will be off by a tiny but but all 3 scores will be averaged up to make up their official score for that player. Top 2 players advance where they will run again to determine 1st and 2nd place. 

Home run contest: one player from each team gets 10 swings or 3 minutes, which ever comes first, from the player's designated pitcher. Top 2 overall in each group will advance to the Finals. The pitch count will increase to 10 swings or 3 minutes, which ever comes first. Only BPF 1.15 and/or BBCORE bats can be used.
