Gameplay
(2) umpires have been scheduled for each game. They will bring out gameballs and work with coaches to determine home/away.
A Batting Cage Schedule is attached for additional warmup opportunities.
The facility has two cages that we rent as part of the tournament. They are located upstairs in the facility.
Each team is assigned a 15 minute hitting window withing 60 minutes of their scheduled start time.
This time is optional and you are not required to use it.
Essentially...
teams that are on field 1 are hitting from 60 minutes to 45 minutes pregame
teams that are on field 2 are hitting from 40 minutes to 25 minutes pregame
teams that are on field 3 are hitting from 20 minutes to 5 minutes pregame
There is also a lot of open hitting times that is free to utilize.
Questions, see staff upon arrival
Good morning everyone,
Two quick reminders for Santa Slam today...

2) Stealth batting gloves have a booth setup near the Top Tier tents. Stop by and check them out!
Thanks!
