Due to the City not allowing the lights to be on after 10:00 PM it change the format of the games for the 63 division on the night. We were forced to go to a 45 minute game time, and in a few of them we called open inning with time still on the clock. Thank you to the managers that agreed to go with the open inning which saved a lot of time and allowed all to get the practice games in.
We will be doing that next week when we have 4 more practice games we will be going back to regular timed games the following week as the league games start.

Many players have been asking about the possibility of a winter league. Well stay tuned for the boards reaction to the question.
Will keep you informed of their dicission.

The board has made the final decision for the 2021 second half. All players that were added are only allowed to be picked up for a number one. Therefore all new players can only be picked up if a team is missing their number one otherwise it’s number for number any questions talk to Brad Wells president of FSSL.
