 Pool Play:  All Pool Play games will be played with a strict ONE HOUR 40 MINUTE  time limit. The game will stop at HOUR AND 40 MINUTES. Time will be kept by the HOME PLATE UMPIRE. (If the visiting team is losing in the last half inning and takes the lead and the home team has not finished its at bat in the last half inning the score reverts to the previous complete innng).  For each team's pool games, the home team will be determined by a coin flip.  All pool games that are tied after 7 innings or the 1 HOUR 40 MINUTE time limit will be recorded a tie. A tie is equal to a ½ win and ½ loss for each team.
 The home team in bracket play will be the higher seed.
  Semi-Final and Championship games will be played with regular extra innings through the 8th inning. Starting in the 9h inning the last three hitters from the previous inning will load the bases with one out.
 
    Taking Infield: No infield will be allowed during the tournaments.

    Mercy Rules: 15 after 3, 12 after 4, 8 after 5.

    Trips to the mound: The members of the coaching staff (including the manager) can make one mound visit per pitcher per inning without needing to remove the pitcher from the game. If the same pitcher is visited twice in one inning, the pitcher must be removed from the contest. (social distancing will be attempted during mound visits to the best extent possible)

    Hitting lineup: Can consist of 9, 10, or 11 players. The lineup must stay with the same number of batters for the entire game. Once the first pitch has been thrown the lineup is locked, and the number of batters may not be changed. The 10th and 11th hitter if used will be designated as an EH and XH on the lineup card. The EH and XH may bat at any spot in the order. The EH and XH is the same as any position on the field as far as substitutions are concerned. The starting pitcher is allowed to DH for himself and bat in any slot in the order but must be listed a P/DH on the lineup card. DH rule will be played with 2019 rule.
    In case of rain: All rain out games may not be made up depending on time constraints. . Tournament format is subject to change at any time if deemed necessary. . If games are cancelled, pool winners and championship qualification will be determined by the tie breaking procedures (listed below).
    Stop in Play: If a game is stopped, the game must start within 1 hour of the stop in play. If games are not resumed, they will become suspended or called official. Games called by umpires that cannot be resumed within 1 hour will be considered an official game.
    Protests: Judgment calls and pitching limitations are not eligible for protest. Protests will be heard and ruled on by the tournament committee. The team protesting must make cash payment of $100 at the time of the protest. If the protest is ruled in the protesting team’s favor the $100 will be refunded.
