Practices

Spring is a different season than Fall and there are other spring sports that take precedent concerning practice locations. We will send out a list of those schools that you can use for practices after we see how many teams register and what ages the teams are.

For instance: If you are practicing at Goot Park and a softball/baseball coach approaches you and says that he/she has that field THEN you need to find another location to practice at. This is the same for all the priority Spring sports.

Fields

The spring season is sponsored by CYSF and has different requirements. The coaches need to take a more active role in the season to ensure that the fields are lined! We will arrange all necessary equipment and supplies. We will be providing a schedule for field lining to the coaches and hopefully we will get enough team in the spring to limit the amount of times each team needs to line. The first team playing on the field on game day will be responsible to ensure it is lined correctly!

Coordinators
All issues of team or player eligibility and placement will be decided by CYSF.

Let's make this a great season for all the players.
