Softball Rules
A.S.A. slow-pitch rules apply including these in partricular:
1. Pitching must be done with one foot in contact with the rubber (pitcher’s mound).
2. There is no leading off. A baserunner must stay in contact with the base until there is contact with the ball by the batter. If a baserunner leads off and the batter swings and misses, the baserunner is out.
Northwestern Intramural modifications:
1. Two pitches are given of which one must be hit into fair play. Teams supply own pitcher to their own team.
2. One courtesy foul ball is given when there is already on strike. The second foul ball constitutes an out.
3. Legal pitches range from 6 feet to 10 feet in arc. If the arc is lower or higher than this, it is automatically a ball unless the batter swings at it. If this happens, the game will continue as if an illegal pitch had not been called. The umpire will use his/her own judgment to determine whether a pitch is legal or not.
4. Teams must bat all players present.
5. A minimum of 8 players must be required to play. Three of these players must be females. There is a maximum of 9 players in the field.
6. If only two females are present, the team must play one player short (a male must sit out) and take an out at the end of the batting order in place of the missing female in the batting order.
7. The 10-run rule applies after five complete innings.
Manager’s Responsibilities
1. Keep score sheet (provided) and turn it in to the umpire immediately after the game.
2. Pass along all information on to your team, especially schedule changes due to weather.
