Game Dates

All umpires will be paid by the SCS Tournament.  Varsity will have two umpires per game.  JV games will have one umpire.  Umpires are set for the first two games.  After each game both coaches immediately (before leaving field) call in your results to:

2009 Pools

The tournament committee will call you back with your next round opponent as soon as all of the results are in and matchups for the next round are determined.  Home games will be determined as equitably as possible and an effort will be made to keep league opponents apart. 

Baseballs:  The official ball of the tournament is the Rawlings R100 NFHS.  Each team should supply 3 new baseballs for each game.   If more are needed teams alternate with the home team first.  Remember to bring baseballs to your road games!

Ground Rules:  The home team will be responsible for setting the ground rules.

Reporting Scores:  Please report scores to your local papers, etc.  When Reporting your score
Call the tournament the Easton Tournament.  Give our generous sponsor some props!

Rainouts:  In the event of rain that makes it impossible to play the game, please follow these steps:

1)  Home team contact the opposing coach to see if the visitor’s field is playable.  If it is move the game to that site.  If neither field is playable arrange a make-up date for the next available date.
If we get a rainout on Friday 3/6, play your scheduled Saturday game 3/7 then try to make up the Friday game on Monday 3/9. 

2)  Contact Scott Fullerton (805) 796-8773 ASAP so he can contact officials.  Make the contact as early as possible.  You can leave a message or leave a text.

3)  We want to get games in, but don’t push terrible field conditions and get somebody hurt.  If we get horrible weather we will get the games in eventually.

**Varsity games take precedence over JV games
**Rainouts must be made up before you can advance to next round.

1) Fewest hits allowed
