Temporary Player Rules

These rules were established to avoid forfeits:

• Minor A and B managers pick 2 players from their teams to become temporary players for Minor A and Major League games. Please coordinate with the parents and explain the circumstances listed below.
• Minor A Player Call-up to play in Majors - All 10 yr olds must be used before any 9 yr olds are considered.
• Minor B Player Call-up to play in Minor A - All 8 yr olds must be used before any 7 yr olds are considered.
• The Player must be placed 9th in batting order.
• The Player must play an outfield position, right field.
• A player can be called 24 hours prior to a game, if a team knows it will not have 9 players.
• A player can be called 24 hours prior to a game, if a manager is not sure of nine players being at a game.
• If 9 regular team players show for a game, the temporary player will not be used.
• If a 9th regular team player comes late to a game, you must replace the temporary player at the end of the inning.
• A rotational system shall be used in order to provide an equal opportunity for all players on the temporary players list.
• A temporary player whose original team is playing at the same time as the game that needs a temporary player shall play with his or her original team first. If no other temporary players are available, then that player may fill in for the team that needs a temporary player.
• The temporary player shall be used for that game only and shall return to the bottom of the list of temporary players in the selection process.
• No temporary players shall be used from T-ball for Minor B games.
