Tournament Information

Welcome to Indiana USSSA Fastpitch brought to you by Mad Dog Sports LLC.

Tournament rules to our events:

All rules are guidelines of the USSSA rulebook. If the rules are not covered, then we depend on the National Federation Rule book.

The Game:

Batting: Teams may bat their entire roster at all events. 

Teams may use the DP/Flex. The rule is the Flex should be listed at the bottom of the lineup and play defense only. The DP and Flex may play defense at the same time.  The DP bats but the Flex never bats. The Flex can sub in for the DP and then the DP/Flex goes away, and the DP is on the bench. 

Courtesy runners: Courtesy runners may be used for pitchers and catchers only. The same courtesy runner cannot run for both the pitcher and catcher in the same inning. If you have a sub, then that player must be used first as the courtesy runner. If no sub, then teams must use the LCAB (Last Completed at Bat.)

Game times: All events vary on time limits. Games are 70-minute games finish the inning. 

Lineup cards: In all events lineup cards must have the first initial of the player, the last name and the player number. Pitchers and catchers need to be identified also. All Substitutes should be listed on the lineup card as well.

Run Rules: Are 12 after 3 innings of play, 10 after 4 innings of play, and 8 after 5 innings of play. In 8U it is 10 after 4 innings and 8 after 5 innings.

Uniforms: All shirts worn should be similar in color with a unique number. We are lenient on this rule due to players changing teams and teams bringing guest players. 

In case of inclement weather:

The director has the right to go to adjust the game schedules in order to get play completed.

ZERO TOLERANCE RULE:

If a coach is ejected from a game, then they are removed for the remainder of that game and could be removed from their next game, but that decision is made by the tournament director after a discussion with the umpires.

If a spectator is ejected, then they are ejected for the remainder of that event. If it is the last game of that event, then they will have to sit out the next event. If circumstances are severe enough, the player of an ejected fan or coach may also be asked to leave the facility.
