posted 1/3/2013 by Emmaus Youth Association
Emmaus Youth Association Sports Drafts Policy
Effective January 3, 2013
The Procedure for forming all recreation (not travel) teams will follow these guidelines:
For example: A-Ball ages 9-10
Team # 1 Team # 2 Team # 3
Jake age 9 John age 9 Joe age 9
Jeff 9 Jerry 9 Jeff 9
Bill 10 Bob 10 Brian 10
Matt 10 Mike 9 Will 10
Eric 9 Al 9 Fred 10
Team #2 would have first pick in the draft due to the fact that they only have one 10 year old. They will then pick another 10 year out of the pool to create a team with an equal amount of 10 year olds if there are no 10 year olds to choose from they still have first pick of a 9 year old. This pattern would continue until all names are pulled from the pool and placed on teams in an even fashion.
-
The roster from the previous season will be the base of the team.
-
Players will stay on the roster of the team they played on in the previous season and will stay on that teams roster for the duration of their playing years or until the team would dissolve because of lack of players.
-
All players who enter the A program will be placed into the "pool" and placed on a team with equal age appropriate players ( as close as possible)
-
All new registrants for the program or players that teams were dissolved will be broken down into age appropriate categories referred to as the "pool". These names will be chosen as a closed ballot and separated according to age.
-
A count of players by age will be categorized.
-
Players the were on the "fall" ball roster are not automatically guaranteed to play on that team in spring unless they were on that roster the previous spring then they would continue to move up with the team.

New Legion Bat Rules....Wood bats only
posted 12/2/2012 by EYA
Parents and Players:
The Legion league has decided that starting this year, all bats in Legion play will be made of wood. The following rule is what will be followed. If your son is considering to play Legion baseball Jr. or Sr. they will need a wood bat.
The rules are as follows:
a. The bat shall be a smooth, round stick not more than 2.61 inches in diameter at the thickest part and not more than 42 inches in lenght. The bat shall be one piece of solid wood.
Note: No laminated or experimental bats shall be used in a professional game (either championship season or exhibition games) until the manufacturer has secured approval from the Rules Committee of his design and methods of manufacture.
b. Cupped Bats: An indentation in the end of the bat up to 1 1/4 inches in depth is permitted and may be no wider than two inches and no less than one inch in diameter. The indentation must be curved with no foreigh substance added
c. The handle, not more than 18inches from its end, may be covered or treated with any material or substance to improve the grip. Any such material or substance that extends past the 18 inch limitation shall cause the bat to be removed from the game
Note: If the umpire discovers that the bat does not conform to (c) above until a time during or after the bat has been used in play, it shall not be grounds for declaring the batter out, or ejected from the game.
Rule 1.10 (c) Comment: If pine tar extends past the 18 inch limitation, then the umpire, on his own initiative or if alerted by the opposing team, shall order the batter to use a different bat. The batter may use the bat later in the game only if the excess substance is removed. If no objections are reasised prior to a bat's use, then a violation of rule 1.10 (c) on tha tplay does not nullify any action or play on the field and no protests of such play are allowed
Last factory paint is allowed on the bat
