UNDER CONSTRUCTION
NEW RULE
STARTING January 1, 2012 : Rule 1-3-2,
regarding bat specifications, specifies that the bat should be a smooth
cylinder implement from the top of the cap to the top of the knob.
The change will also require that all non-wood bats
meet the Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution (BBCOR)
performance standard, which is the standard used by the National
Collegiate Athletic Association. Formerly, non-wood bats had to
meet the Ball Exit Speed ration (BESR) standard.
The new rule states that NON-WOOD BATS MUST BE LABELED WITH A
RECTANGULAR CERTIFICATION MARK - "A MINIMUM
OF A HALF-INCH ON EACH SIDE AND LOCATED ON THE BARREL OF THE BAT
IN ANY CONTRASTING COLOR."

Under the NYSPHSAA
Sports Standards the battery must have 10 scheduled practices before
participating in an interscholastic
scrimmage. Each individual
pitcher and catcher must attend
8 of the 10
practices to be eligible. The other
position players must have 8 scheduled practices
and each must attend
6 of the 8 practices to be eligible for play.
In order to be
eligible for play in an interscholastic contest the battery must have 15 scheduled
practices. Each individual pitcher and catcher must
attend 13 of the 15 practices to be eligible.
The other position
players must have 10 scheduled practices and each must attend 8 of the 10
practices to be
eligible for play.
The maximum number
of games scheduled and played during the regular season is 20 (excluding
sectional
games). Individuals may participate in
two regulation games per day with at least a 15
minute rest between games. All tournament games - including southern trips - count as games
towards schedule and final record.
Schedules must be
submitted to your league coordinator by Friday, April 2, 2010. Any games
scheduled after
April 2nd will not count towards sectional seeding.
All contest must be scheduled 7 inning games. Teams
scheduling 5 inning games – single or
double headers – will
result in forfeit for both teams. In October 1998 the NYSPHSAA waived
baseball's
10 run rule. A league or section may not
use the rule without the approval of the
NYSPHSAA's
governing board. This does not prohibit
an individual school or coach ending a
contest
prior to its full completion for whatever reason.
The last play date
is Saturday, May 22, 2010. Any games
played after May 23rd will not count
towards sectional
seeding.
Game results (record and seeding points) must be
reported to your
Class
Coordinator![]()
weekly, starting Monday, April 5th. With full cooperation, up to date records, points, and
seedings will be posted on the Section V Official Baseball Website.
Under the NYSPHSAA
Sports Standards a pitcher may pitch in a maximum of twelve (12) innings
in one (1) day, but
no more than eighteen (18) innings in any six (6) consecutive day period.
Delivery of one (1)
pitch constitutes having pitched an inning.
If he pitches in eight (8) or more
innings in a day, he
must have two (2) nights of rest before he can pitch again. Any violation
of the rule will be
considered in the same light as a school using an ineligible player. The game
will be
forfeited.
DUTIES OF THE
COACH![]()

Duties of Athletic Director

DUTIES OF THE
