Warming Up

Teams are not permitted to take batting practice or infield warm-ups in the grass of the playing field.


Expected Behavior

Negative behavior/bad sportsmanship at youth sporting events has become a major issue. The Complex is not immune as we see coaches and parents that choose to act in a negative manner toward the opposing team or an umpire from time to time. Please remember that the games are for the kids, not the adults, and we expect each adult to set a positive example for the players through their words and actions.  Everyone that attends a tournament is expected to act in a positive manner, no matter the outcome of a play, call by an umpire, or the game itself.
We simply ask the following:

Let the players play
Let the coaches coach
Let the umpires umpire


Please Note:  These rules are not all-inclusive and may be added or amended at any time at the discretion of management. Common sense should be used at all times. Our goal is for all individuals (players, coaches, parents, and fans) to enjoy their experience at the Meijer Sports Complex.
