    Extra Practice

  6. Choose the day and time of your request. Extra practices are also
    Monday through Friday, 5:30 or 7:00 PM only.

  7. E-mail the field scheduler before noon on Saturday for the upcoming

  8. Check the field schedule either on the web site or at the ballpark

    try and get an extra practice every week, you need to e-mail in every week.

Practice that are “Bumped”

  1. All games may "bump" other team’s practices, so it is imperative that you check the schedule on Sunday.

  2. If your practice has been bumped you can take one of the unassigned fields.

  3. Open times slots on the master schedule may be slated for make up games. Managers can not make an assumption that the fields are open to use. The manager must go to the ballpark and speak to the board member on duty. They will write you on the schedule.

  4. Please do not write it on the schedule yourself.

Regular Season Games

  1. Your league representative will get your season’s schedule to the
    proper field schedulers.

  2. Fields are handled by the field schedulers. You do not need to call
    them in each week.

  3. Umpires will also be scheduled so you do not need to call the umpire coordinator. This does not apply to select baseball, division 1, or AA knothole teams. Please remember that the manager is responsible to obtain the team’s umpires.

  4. Coaches will play their games on the assigned dates, times and
    fields. We have had coaches in the past wanting to reschedule all of their games for different days - this can not happen.

  5. Check the field schedule either on the web site or at the ballpark
    after 2:00 PM on Sunday just to double check that your game has been scheduled.

  6. In the event that your regular season game was left off of the
    schedule, e-mail your field scheduler immediately so the addition can be made. Please do not wait until the day of your game to check the schedule and then realize that there is a problem.

Rainouts (Make-Up) Games

  1. Make-up games must be made up on your practice night.

  2. If the rainout game was originally away, that make-up must be
    played away. There will not be any away rainouts played at Tealtown.

  3. Confirm the date and time with the opposing manager. Weekday
    games will start at 6:30 PM and weekend games at 10:00, 1:00 or 4:00.

  4. E-mail your field scheduler before noon on Saturday for the upcoming week.

  5. Check the field schedule either on the web site or at the ballpark
    after 2:00 PM on Sunday just to double check that your game has been scheduled. You will not get a return phone call from your field scheduler for confirmation.

  6. If we can not accommodate you with a field for your game, you will
    be notified by your field scheduler.

Game Cancellations

  1. If your game has been cancelled, it is the manager’s responsibility to e-mail and notify the field scheduler.

  2. The manager must then e-mail the umpire coordinator so your umpire’s will be cancelled.

  3. If the cancellation is not e-mailed to these two people, your team will loose their practice for the next week and the manager will be responsible for paying the umpires for his next home game.
