Hello Coaches,

We are excited to host your team at the 2025 West Fargo Scheels Invite this weekend. Please make sure to find your schedule on Exposure app. Please look in the documents within the exposure app for the rules and the 11U-12U skills invite information on Saturday night.

There are some games starting Friday, and all teams play Saturday and Sunday. Here are a couple of reminders for this weekend’s tournament:

There is no gate fee to get in. For those teams that have not yet paid their entry fee, please do so prior to your first game at the north concessions stands by the turf fields on the north side of 13th Ave. (Checks for $500 are to be made out to: West Fargo Baseball Class of 2031)
There will be 3 concession stands throughout the complex. Cash is preferred, but there will be some cashless options.

11u and 12u – Please remember to join for the Buffalo Wild Wings Skills Competition on Saturday evening, starting around 6 pm on field #5. Rules and roster sheet to be filled out and brought to the competition is attached. This will be a fun event as all kids are on the team are able to participate, compete, and have a great time!

Please remember to bring game balls. The teams playing are responsible for gameballs throughout the game, and each should have 2 new baseballs ready for the start of each game.

After each game, the umpires will record scores and pitch counts from both teams. Please make sure a coach communicates with the umpire after each game and have pitch counts from GameChanger (or other tracking system) to have accurate counts. As you are doing this, please also remind your teams to clear the dugouts so the next teams can get in and start to warmup in the outfield – there is plenty of green space around each field to meet as a team following games.

When playing on the north fields (turf fields #1 and #2 – Scheels Field and Essentia Health Field) – there are no sunflower seeds or peanuts allowed

A couple quick things to point out regarding batting/bats:
9u age group can use USA or USSSA bats
10u, 11u, and 12u is only USA bats
Continuous batting order is required for all age groups, with free substitutions in the field (pitchers may NOT re-enter as a pitcher in the same game)

Have fun and we look forward to hosting this weekend!
