Reminder that we are playing at a public park and smoking & open displays of alcohol put you at risk of being fined by bylaw officers or RCMP visiting our tourney and jeopardizes the league's ability to rent fields.

Playoff News
Updated playoff schedules in the handouts section due to unforseen last minute changes. 

Year End Housekeeping

B and C Division scorebooks to be dropped off and playoff gear (balls, scoresheets, etc) to be picked up.  Will also have to pay fines for forfeits.
Date:  Thursday, July 7
Time: 8pm to 10pm
Location:  Legends Pub (6511 Buswell Street, Richmond, BC V6Y 2G7)

Final Standings
NOTE:  Standings on the website do not necessarily reflect that actual final standings due to tie breaking rules we follow (and not having the same options on the website).

Playoffs

UPDATED Playoff schedules loaded in handouts section
- Two game playdown during the week for weekend positioning.  All teams make the weekend.
- Double knockout tourney on the weekend, Saturday and Sunday (if you make it to Sunday).
- Note modified rules in handouts:  (1) No new innings after 60mins, (2) Max 7 innings, (3) Mercy applies at the 5th inning, and (4) Division Finals will be 9 innings w/ no new innings after 80mins.

All Star Game

Remember to select a male and female player on your team to play in the all star game.
Date: Sunday, July 17
Time: 6pm to 7:30pm
Location:  Fields 2 and 4

As we round into the final games of the regular season, we're still encountering some bad weather.  There are no really good options to make them up.  As such...
All games will play as scheduled.  If it is raining all teams must show up with enough players to play at the scheduled start time.  If the umpire decides to call the game due to weather or unsafe field conditions a coin toss must be performed at the field.  No games will be rescheduled.  If your team does not have enough players to field a team then it will be a standard forfeit and fines will apply.

Standings and Scores
B Division mostly updated.  Missing scores from the odd game.  Will be sending out emails for any missing scores.
C Division hopefully updated by Wednesday (oops, I meant Wednesday).

[Remember, home team is responsible for sending in scores.]

Trophies
Carlos will be contacting teams for outstanding trophies.

Due to some confusion around the mercy rule, here is some additional wording and info to help describe how it is supposed to work:

If one team is ahead by ten runs or more at the end of seven innings, the game will be declared over (eg. 11 – 1 after the seventh inning is complete). Both teams may decide to finish the game but the official score of the game shall be the one at the end of the seventh inning. If the run differential at the completion of seven innings is nine or less (eg. 10 - 1) then the game will continue until the ninth inning (or as subject to game length rules).

The mercy rule is a one time check done at the completion of seven innings.  There is no mercy check in the eight or ninth inning as those innings are open.  Nor is there a mercy check prior to seventh inning (ie. No early mercy rule for double headers).  

Canucks Game 7
With the Canucks needing to win game 7 for the cup as planned (well, according to EA Sports' SIM prediction), reminder that C Div Wed June 15th games can be rescheduled without fines. As a default, we're going to cancel all games that day. If teams agree and want to play, please contact Colin ASAP so he can coordinate with the umpires. With the games cancelled, teams must find a day for rescheduling.  If you cannot reschedule, you need to schedule a coin toss.  Field selection is limited for rescheduling.

Standings Standings
Still working on updating this.

Canucks Game 6 
Since a Canucks/Bruins game 6 is now confirmed, reminder that C Div Mon June 13th games can be rescheduled without fines.  As a default, we're going to cancel all games that day.  If teams agree and want to play, please contact Colin ASAP so he can coordinate with the umpires.  With the games cancelled, teams must find a day for rescheduling (reminder that most Monday games are doubleheaders).  If you cannot reschedule, you need to schedule a coin toss.
The open B division fields on Tue June 14 and Thu June 16 have already been taken.  Most of the fields for Fri June 17 have been allocated for a B Division rainout rescheduling.  

Updated Schedule 
The C Division Schedule in the handouts section will be updated over this weekend (June 11/12) with known rescheduled games.

Standings
Standings will be updated over this weekend (June 11/12).

B Div games for tonight are cancelled.  Forecast is for showers continuing through the evening until starting to let up around 9pm.  

Games targeted to be reschedule for Friday June 17.  To be confirmed over the weekend.  If teams are unable to field teams for the reschedule, we will coin toss. 

(3:00pm) 

How the league will be handling rescheduling during Canuck games:

C Div games during SCF games 1, 2, and 3:  Since these will be SCF non-elimination games, C div games will be played as scheduled with standard forfeits and fines.

C Div games during SCF game 4:  If SCF game 4 is a non-elimination game, games will be played as scheduled with standard forfeits and fines.  However, if SCF game 4 is an elimination game, C Div games can be rescheduled if both teams agree.  If one team wishes to play, the game can go down as a forfeit with no fine if the losing team graciously accepts the loss.  To reschedule a game, teams should agree to a rescheduled game date within 10 days of the original game date. Games can be rescheduled for Tuesday and Thursday games at an empty B Division field and will be played with an umpire or on a Friday played without an umpire.  Selection is first come first serve.  Note, rescheduled rainout games get priority over rescheduled SCF conflict games.  Once you have your rescheduling info, contact the league (ie Colin) a minimum 24 hours prior to the original game time so that the umpire can be cancelled.  Games that cannot be rescheduled within 10 days require the team captains/managers to meet to perform a coin toss to decide the game (1-0).

SCF game 5:  No RAMSL games will be scheduled on Friday during game 5. 

C Div games during SCF games 6 and 7:  As games 6 and 7 will be SCF elimination games, the same procedure above where game 4 is SCF elimination game will be followed.

Stanley Cup Finals schedule:

C Division Wed May 25 Rainout

The C Division games rained out on Wednesday, May 25 are being rescheduled to Friday, June 3.  No Canuck game that night.  Unfortunately, as we round into the last half of the schedule, we cannot easily double up remaining games to free up a regular Monday or Wednesday to reschedule this rainout (or any future rainouts for that matter).  

Schedule in the handout section will be updated on the weekend.  

Trophies

If you still have any trophies from last year, get ready to hand them in as we will need to repair and get them ready for yearend.  Details to be posted shortly on how to return them.  

Please keep an eye on this post over the next week as various updates will be made to it with various info and answers to questions:

League Contact for day to day issues:  Colin (VP) is the primary contact for day to day issues.  However, he won't necessarily get to his phone when his team is playing so during Mondays and Wedensdays during game time, please contact Celina with any pressing issues. 

Washroom keys:  Celina is cutting new key will try to distribute them to the new team sometime this week.

Team contact list:  Contact List added to the Handouts section.  Still needs to be updated a bit.

Updated Schedules:  New B and C division schedules in the handouts section with rescheduled games due to rainouts and requests.  Games in the schedule section will be updated hopefully soon.

Tamley field:  There is a bit of a field conflict at Tamley field with a soccer group on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Currently being addressed.    

C Div Rainout Rescheds:   April 27 games rescheduled to June 22 as double headers.  May 11 games rescheduled to July 6 as double headers.

[Updated May 16.] 

Sorry for the delay in posting.  Site admin functional was a bit gimped today. 

We're going to go ahead with the games.  Forecast is for showers tonight but last night the showers were light & intermittent so games were playable so we're going to hope for the same tonight.  

(3:20pm)

C Division games tonight (Wed May 25) are cancelled due to rain.

We will try to reschedule the games but due to the number of double headers, note that we may need to reschedule them on a Friday if we cannot juggle the schedule to double up on single games (need to review our options). 

Reminder:  Keep an eye on the schedule in the handouts section but will also give a heads up here when it has been updated.   

(2:55pm) 

C div games today are cancelled.  

Rainy weather scheduled all day with 90% chance of rain (not showers) at game time.  It's been raining all day so expecting the fields to be messy too.

(2:30pm)

Games are on for tonight.  Any cancellations will be decided at the field so bring enough players to ensure you avoid forfeit.

"Few showers" are in the forecast for tonight but hopefully they will be delayed until after our games.

(3:30pm) 

Thursday night's games are on.  Games will need to be called at the field by the umpire if the weather starts to deteriorate.  

Forecasts are showing the weather to be cloudy with a chance of showers or an increased chance of showers by game time.  

(3:15pm) 

Games are on tonight.  Will be up to the umpires to determine if they call the game at the field.  Please ensure you have enough players show to avoid forfeit. 

We had great weather on the weekend so that should have dried up the fields a bit so they at least not soaked.  The forecast is for the rain to end this evening changing to cloudy with a chance of showers.    

(3:00pm)

All but one game Thursday are on. 

Ballz Deep vs Loaded at Thomas Kidd has been cancelled.

Some of the executive checked Thomas Kidd field and determined that it was unplayable.  Conditions at some of the other fields were reported as being poor on Tuesday but we were not able to confirm for today so decisions for the rest of the games will be determined by the umpire at the fields.

Games tonight (Wednesday) are cancelled. 

It's starting to shower & getting windy, with it likely to get worse as the forecast is for 80-90% chance of showers.

--

B Division:  Keep an eye for status of Thursday's games also because there are some forecasts calling for thundershowers.  

Games Tuesday evening are on.  

Forecast is for it to be cloudy with a probability of showers.  Hoping for the showers to hold off or be light enough to complete the games.  (Updated at 3:20pm)

Tonight's (Monday's) games are a go.  Games being called due to weather will now be made at the field by the umpire.  Teams must show up with minimum required numbers or risk forfeit.  (3:10pm)

Reminder that all teams must send their MVP's or alternates to play in the all-star games on Tuesday, July 20.  The league MVP's will play the Divisional Playoff Champions (Bombers & Loonie Martoonies).  Contact Celina ASAP if your team is unable to attend.

Best of the Rest

There is an extra spot in the Best of the Rest Tourney on the C Division side.  The spot will be filled via a draw, subject to the outcome of the Marlins vs Hardwoods 8am game (Marlins have first dibs if they lose as they would have been knocked out after 2 straight losses). 

All teams that lose their second and final game in the morning (ie first set of Saturday games in the losers bracket) and are interested in slotting into the BoTR should stay at the fields until all the games are completed (~12:30pm) and send their captains to the Washroom building behind Diamonds 3 and 4 for the draw (dependent on the Marlins/Hardwood game).  

Palmer Diamond Locations

We needed to adjust the diamonds at Palmer because two of them have been configured as youth diamonds.  Updated field numbers are in the latest playoff bracket spreadsheet (v9).  I've also included a map of Palmer with the diamond locations.

C Division's Wednesday games have been entered into the bracket and ready for Saturday.

B Division's Thursday games have all been entered into the bracket and ready for Saturday.  

See handouts section for weekend bracket and map.

Colin will be managing league issues during playoff week.

Final standings are set.  Please refer to the Playoff Bracket spreadsheet in the handouts section (B Div on worksheet 1, C Div on worksheet 2, Best of the Rest worksheet 3) or email I sent to the team contacts Friday night/Saturday morning.  Standings on the standings page are incorrect because we cannot configure the website to utilize our tie breaking methodology (eg. head to head games, head to head scoring, and coin tosses).

Reminder:  Please try to get a count going to Year End Party by Wednesday.

If you are lacking scoresheets for playoffs, can you please print out a few from the following website.  They have a couple of versions that are simple but good.

http://www.baseballscorecard.com/downloads.htm 

Scores and Standings

B Division is completely up to date.  We’re just waiting for tonight’s (Thursday’s) games to be played.

C Division is nearly up to date.  We have about 3 games we’re clarifying and we need to enter last night’s (Wednesday’s) games.

Playoffs

Playoff brackets built.  See handouts section.  Will enter teams' names in the brackets once we sort out the final standings.  Quick notes:

- The first seed in each division gets a bye to Thursday

- The loser btw the 8th and 9th seeds gets a bye to Saturday (it’s just the way this bracket has to work)

- The three teams that have been knocked out midweek in each division will move to the weekend into a combined (six teams in total) Best of the Rest bracket.

- First games on Saturday start at 8am. Last one on Saturday will end around 5:20pm. First games on Sunday start at 9:30am. Last game on Sunday will hopefully end just past 5pm.

- Games are scheduled for 1.5hrs as usual and there is only 5mins between games so we need to move quick.

- As mentioned, home team of the first games each day need to set up bases. Would be great if everyone brought their bases just in case.

Year End Party

The Jackals are graciously hosting the Year End “Backyard Barn Bash” dance again this year after an amazing party last year.

Carlos will instead be at Legends Pub to collect B Division scorebooks on Thursday. 

Legends is on the corner of Cook Road and Buswell Street.  It's basically one block east of Richmond Centre/Number 3 Road.

Standings and Scores

Almost up to date.  Just chasing down some outstanding scores.

Scorebooks, MVP, Most Sportsmanlike Team, and Playoff Packages

Please hand in your C Division scorebooks to Colin (Strangers) on Wednesday at Cambie and your B Division scorebooks to Carlos (Loaded) on Thursday.  If you are unable, contact Celina when she gets back (July 10) to arrange to meet on Sunday or Monday.

When dropping off your scorebook, please also have your male & female MVP's for your team and your nomination for Most Sportsmanlike Team for your division.

Playoff balls will be handed out when scorebooks are dropped off.

Playoff Format

All teams make playoffs.   

Double knockout with initial two games during midweek and completion of the playoffs during the weekend.

Because of the uneven number of teams, some teams will get byes for the midweek games.  To be explained in the playoff ladder.

Teams knocked out during midweek will play in a Best of the Rest bracket during the weekend.

Saturday's games start at 8am with home teams for the first set of games supplying bases which the league will collect at the end of the day. 

Because of the tight schedule, weekend games will need to be played on time.  

Field assignment to be completed by Tuesday.

Year End Party

 Info coming shortly.

Scores and Standings

Scores and Standings will be updated today Wednesday, June 30.  

[Sorry, was unable to update on weekend.]

President (Celina) away July 1 to 10 inclusive

Celina will be away starting July 1.  In her absence, contact Colin (VP) for anything that requires immediate attention.

Rescheduled games and Unplayable games going forward

There are a few games still waiting to be rescheduled.  They will be confirmed once we confirmation back from the umpires.

Any games canceled from now to playoffs need to be cointossed.  Not enough time to reschedule.

Playoffs and Closing

Details coming by the weekend (hopefully).

C Division games cancelled on Monday, April 19 have been rescheduled as follows:

Double headers originally scheduled for Monday, April 19th will now be played (still double headers) on Wednesday, June 30th.

Monday, May 10th is now a double header day with the games originally scheduled plus the reciprocal games bumped from June 30. 

*** See handouts section for new updated printable version of the schedule.  *** 

Reminder:  The updated schedules in handout section are the official schedules.  The web schedules are susceptible to errors since they were manually transcribed from the handout versions.

Sportstown is looking for new teams to sponsor.  Any teams interested can contact Glen Hutton ghutton@sportstownbc.com . 

If anyone know of other pubs/restaurants that have sponsorship slots, let me know and I'll post on the website.

Can everyone please review the league alcohol policy with your team.  While also a safety issue, the league runs the risk of encountering issues with the city of Richmond regarding our field rentals.   

"Any team found with open alcohol half hour prior to and/or during any SPN sanctioned game will be given a written warning by the RSMSL executive. A second offence will result in a $50 fine and an automatic loss for the offending team. A third offence and the team must forfeit their bond and will be suspended from any further league play, playoffs included."

Just a reminder that the home team is listed second in the handouts but in the online schedule, the home team is listed first. 

[Can't seem to change the order in the online schedule so we may want to consider next year changing the handout schedule to read that the home team is listed first to provide consistency even though that's a bit counter intuitive with home teams batting second.]

Reminder to email scores in to RAMSL (at) telus (dot) net. 

[Funny format is to limit the spam to the email box.  Need to replace the (at) with @ and (dot) with a .]
