Thank you, Coaches! We couldn't do it without you!

Slots will run Monday-Sunday.
Coaches are allowed 2 one hour slots per team per week.
Please be mindful of the time & allow the next coach to begin use at their reserved time.
Fields
Fields are available for practice on a "first come, first served" basis. There is no longer priority use by any league on any field. (Highland North is now available for baseball teams as well as softball teams.) Bronco field is not a practice field- do not practice on Bronco.
If the fields are wet, STAY OFF!
If games have been cancelled due to poor field conditions, you are not permitted to use them for practice.
Shetland teams should move to a grassy area if an older team would like to pracitce on a field.

| Umpires |
Please report umpire "no-shows" to Allison Radkay at
708-421-2213 as soon as possible. Umpires are scheduled to arrive at games 15 minutes prior to the start of each game. On weekends please keep in mind that umpires often ump back-to-back games at different fields and being at your game 15 minutes prior to the start is not always possible.
Umpire feedback is welcome! Please submit umpire related questions, comments, concerns or praise to Allison Radkay. |
