Safety

Hair should be in a ponytail and headbands used. We want to keep hair out of the face and hands away from the face as much as possible.   Failure to have hair in a ponytail and away from face forfeits the ability to play. If short hair is in the players eyes it should be pulled back. Safety first! Players should be to the diamond a MINIMUM of 15 minutes before game time. Parents: I would recommend face masks for your daughter if there is any concern about safety. Some leagues require all positions to wear a facemask, although our league only requires pitchers to wear facemasks. If you are concerend about your childs safety, please consider.   Nails should be trimmed short.
