RECREATIONAL CATEGORY
Recreational category is for beginners who just picked up the sport and would like to put their skills to the test.

All players can only have 3 years or less experience, as "beginners" say it all, we would strongly encourage the others who have more than 3 years' experience to come play in our Intermediate or Competitive category!

There must be a minimum of 3 ladies and a maximum of 7 gentlemen playing per inning.
* Subject to 4 or more participating teams.

INTERMEDIATE CATEGORY
After playing for a couple of years, you already have fairly good knowledge of the game. Now, you are ready to pit your skills against other like-minded players!
There can only be a maximum of 4 male league players. There is no limit to the number of female league players per team.

We know age has caught up with some of you, so feel free to appoint your designated runner (DR) before your game. Your DR can run bases for any player and there is no limit to the number of times he/she comes in. Please indicate in the line-up sheet who your DR is.

COMPETITIVE CATEGORY
We welcome any team that wants to prove their team's prowess to all. Kicked up a notch from the intermediate category, get ready for some huffing and puffing. There is no minimum ladies' rules here, you can field all your male players, or it could all be female.

All games in the 3 categories will be played for a duration of 65 minutes or 7 innings, whichever is earlier. No new inning shall start at 60 minutes. The count will begin at 1 ball & 1 strike. Only rubber studs, running shoes are allowed (no metal cleats). More detailed rules and regulations for each category can be downloaded from our website.
