Check out our latest Training Zone video where we break down the field positions – from Pitcher to Outfield – and what they’re all about! Whether you’re an infield rock or an outfield speedster, we’ve got a spot for everyone.
FAIR PLAY - FIELD COMPOSITION
We’ve got a brand new Training Zone video explaining some important team rules to keep our games fair and fun!
-
Max 10 players on the field at once – it’s a full house!
-
No more than 3 male-identifying players in the infield and 2 in the outfield – sharing the spotlight, folks!
-
Male-identifying players can’t bat back-to-back – we’ll call an ‘out’ if that happens, but no worries for our female-identifying and gender-diverse teammates, go all out!
Check out the video and get ready to hit the field with all the knowledge you need to have fun and play fair!
