South Valley Little League: District-wide Rules, Interleaguing

     The attached document is the current year's District-wide Regular Season Rules as approved by the standing presidents during the October 2009 meeting. It was modified on November 13th to include the Baseball Pitching Rules updated effective that date by Little League International.

Included is a "rostering tool" as presented by the Western Regional Director (James Gerstenglager) - a tool guiding managers on rotating players so all have more than the 'minimum' playing time ... reaching participation in 60%-70% of the games by season's end! 

     These rules are for all in-league and interleague play (including any "in-district"  Special Games).  This standard sets consistency for the managers, coaches, volunteer umpires, players, and spectators, and alleviates a lot of questions and confusion!  Aside from local "by-laws" specific to field conditions or local park rules, there is no more wondering what rules are played on what field or in what league!
