Frequent Questions

I would like our two kids to be able to play on the same team, but they are different ages. Can I get them on the same team?
Per the LSBA bylaws, all American League players must play in the appropriate league dictated by their age. There are NO exceptions to this rule.

We were playing a baseball game last night and it lightening was dangerously close. Why did it take so long for the games to be called?
LSBA has specific procedures to follow to ensure the safety of players, families and anyone else at the ballpark. We have lightening detectors and when lightening reaches a specific distance, all park patrons are warned through the sound of a horn. Umpires have been trained to call games immediately and everyone is to leave the park when the horn sounds.

There seem to be fields sitting empty when there could be games being played. Why is that?
All of the fields at Legacy are set up to accommodate games for specific age groups. Games can only be played on fields that have appropriate dimensions for the age group (eg. distance between bases, distance between mound and home plate, distance to outfield fence, etc.). Both season schedules and make-up games are developed based on the availability of fields, starting dates of leagues, # of games, # of days between games, etc.
