In the event that the league is unable to provide an umpire it is up to the HOME team to supply one umpire for the plate and the VISITING team will supply a base umpire.
Alchohol is prohibited in the complex it is up to the team reps to ensure your team is following this rule. If a team is found to have brought alcohol into the complex it could result in your team being kicked out of the league. This is a serious issue as it affects our liquor licence.
Any team that defaults a game, will be fined $50.00, unless they communicate to the league

by noon on the day of the game, then the fine will be reduced to $25.00. To avoid a fine, a team must ask to be excluded from the schedule in advance of the schedule being built. All fines must be paid before the next game.
Opening tournament is being planned to take place May 31-June 2. We will need confirmation from your team by 5pm Wednesday May 22. If your team does not reply by this date you will not be put into the tournament.

MEMORANDUM
TO: All teams participating in Dustball 2017
FROM: Softball Yukon
SUBJECT: No games or practices on Pepsi Diamond #3 on Friday, June 16 until 3:45 PM.
DATE: June 2, 2017
We had a request from the Principal of Takhini Elementary School to avoid using Pepsi Diamond #3 while school is in session on Friday, June 16, 2017.
Therefore, there are no games scheduled and there will be NO TEAM PRACTICES on Pepsi Diamond #3 during that time. Please avoid using the parking lot or school field.
It is critical that Dustball 2017 does not interfere with the Takhini Elementary school day or activities.
Failure by any team, or part of a team, to follow this request will result in the immediate removal of your team from the Dustball 2017 tournament.
If a team is removed for not following this request, there will be no appeal.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Please ensure that you inform your players as well as fans that bringing your own alcohol into the complex is not allowed. If teams are found to have players or fans drinking their own alcohol in the complex the Executive will have to address the issue accordingly.
Friendly reminder please be courteous with teams when they are the home team and only have 10 players. There is nothing wrong with having both teams ump their own batters for the game. We do have a short supply of umpires for this season.
The team standings will be posted this weekend. However due to the fact that most scores being emailed in are not the same we will have to omit the runs for and runs against and use wins and losses.
For pickups in order for you to make a team. You are allowed to pick up 1 male and 1 female to make 10. If your own regular player shows up they must be entered into the position in which the pick up was playing.
For those who have concerns regarding home and away please have faith in the rotation that it will balance out by the end of season.
Team reps can pick up balls, lineup cards and scorebook at the Pepsi Complex beer garden after 6 pm either Wednesday or Thursday night.
Schedule has been revised please note any changes to your division. Thanks see everyone Wednesday and Thursday. We will have executive members at the complex to collect any additional fees that need to be paid.

Thanks to all teams that confirmed, we didn’t hear from 2, and 2 were verbal only, but of 58 teams from last year, we had 54 that answered! Of the 58 teams 48 are returning, so there will be some room for the teams on the wait list. We did give a new Division 1 team a spot already, but the remainder of the teams on the “wait list”, will be notified shortly after our Apr. 13 meeting, on where they stand. If you look at the “Teams” tab on the website, you will see where you are. Any Teams in Division 5, are the teams that are a “NO” (Not returning), and also the 2 teams that didn’t reply.
Only 1 day to go, and we’ve heard from 48 of the 58 teams! 44 have confirmed they’re coming back! The deadline to confirm if you’re in, for the 2016 season, tomorrow (Apr. 1).
Thank you to the teams that have responded. Responses are to made to the league e-mail account.
If we don’t hear from you by Noon on April 1st, then you will be moved to the wait list, and new teams on that wait list, will be given vacant spots in the various divisions.
There is a lot of interest, so don’t delay! We are limited to 7 divisions of 8 teams (56 Total), so make sure you reply right away.

2016 Divisions
pdf
The Div. 1 Champs were the Complete Concrete Athletics, with the Whitehorse Dental Donkeys finishing 2nd. 3rd place went to Jats Backyard Landscaping.
The Div. 2 Champs were the BLC Group Knights, with the Bounty Hunters taking 2nd. 3rd Place went to Unity Clothing.
The Div. 3 Champs were the Floor by Floor Rugburns, with Porter Creek Super A Foods taking 2nd. 3rd place went to Hub International Insurance.
The Div. 4A Champs were the Cereal Killers, with the FHP Ballwackers taking 2nd. 3rd place went to Bailey’s Pub.
The Div. 4B Champs were Kilrich, with the Medicine Chest Sliders taking 2nd. 3rd Place went to Yukon Yamaha.
Error found ! We discovered that 6 teams were all scheduled to play, on one field at the same time, on Aug. 5.
That’s impossible to do, so the schedules have been changed (updated).
For Div. 4 A - Game 17 is now on P-1, and switched to the earlier time of 6:45 pm. (Ballwackers vs Kubota)
For Div. 4 A - Game 23 will move to T-5, but stay as the late time of 8:15 pm. (Bailey’s Pub vs Seniors)
That should take care of everything going forward, and please aqccept our apologies for any confusion.
Also be advised that a Div. 1 Team will not be playing the remainder of the season.
The Div. 1 Final will be the same as originally scheduled, and the 3rd Place game is now on Wed. (See schedule)
Teams (Div. 2 & 3)
There were some recent corrections needed to the Div 2 & 3 schedules.
A Bracket was missing, so the Losers of Games 23 and 24 will now be routed to a different section.
Check the schedules closely on where you play next. A Question mark means we didn’t get the results.
If you see a Question Mark, on the schedule, where you think you should be playing, it’s due to the game result not being submitted, to the league’s e-mail account.
The Stats person is not a mind reader, and cannot just take a wild guess at who won. Get those results in after the game please.
Due to cancelled games on Wed. July 22, we have revised the schedule. Now Posted.
In order to stay with a triple K.O., we moved all Mon. Div. 1 games to Wed., where there will be some Double headers for D-1.
All Div. 4 games are still on, but be advised there are several Double Headers for Div. 4 next week as well. Be prepared and read the schedule closely.
Teams.
Please be advised we had to make a few changes to the Schedules, due to some errors found.
There are minor changes to all the Div. 2 , 3, and 4 schedules.
Thank you to the individuals that discovered these.
Please check the site frequently to ensure any more changes are communicated right away.
Teams:
Reminder there are no advanced notice of Rain-outs anymore.
If the fields are too dangerous, or will be damaged, then the game can be canceled.
The decision to cancel will be determined at game time, by the Umpire or the Teams involved.
Earlier this year we had rain-outs during the middle of the 8:15 games, as a heavy downfall caused the fields to be unplayable.
This Mid-Day rain will most likely pass, and all the fields will probably be good (Dust free) for tonight.
The Closing Tournament Schedules are now posted. Your roster from regular season will be the roster used during this 3 week tournament. You are not allowed to pick up players during the closing tournament. If you are making any changes to your roster they must be submitted by email to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) .

Any Roster changes
(within the rules)
must be submitted by Noon on Wed. June 3.
If we don’t hear from you, your regular season rosters must be used.
Most of the Leagues Umpires play in D-2 & D-3, so we might be short this weekend. Be prepared.
If an Umpire is working another game, and is due to play right after at another park, the game they are playing will wait for that player to arrive.
Any time lost due to this wait, will be added to the game clock. It’s an unwritten rule that has caused issues in the past, so now it’s written !
Thursday nights action in the Complex, found several very Thirsty Players and Fans, that did not purchase their drinks at the Beer gardens.
Several Cans and Bottles were found in some dugouts, and entrance garbage cans. Also out in the Parking lot which is also “Off limits” to drinking.
This is a “
“. How many times do we have to remind everyone of this.
We know that 80 to 90 % of the teams know & respect this rule, so this message is directed at those who are abusing it.
We suspect we know who the culprits were, and will be watching very closely this weekend and in the future.
Reminder to all Teams and especially the Team Rep’s. You are responsible for your Fans as well as your Players.
- If we get any torential rains, and there are cancelations needed, they will be posted here on the website. If nothing is posted, please show up, and the teams can then decide if they want to play or not. If an Umpire is there and says No, it is their final decision.
- Recently there were Beer Cans found in the Complex garbage cans in a dugout. There were a couple of new teams playing there that night, so please be aware of the “No bringing Alcohol into the Complex” rule. It is a “Licensed Premise”. This is a serious offense that can lead to suspension of the entire team.
- Parking at the RS fields. All new teams are advised that there are 2 locked Chains (between fields 1 & 2, and between fields 2 & 3). Vehicles CANNOT be parked in front of these portion of the fences, as they are needed for emergencies, such as an Ambulance in the event of a serious injury.
Hi Teams.
Div. 2 & 3 teams need to let us know by Fri. May 29 at Noon, if you’re playing the weekend of June 5 to 7. (e-mail the league account)
The schedules will be built this weekend (May 30/31), and posted on Mon. June 1. If we don’t hear from you, you will not be playing !
They are a “Modified Double Knock-out / Dual Bracket” system, that only guarantees 2 games, with a 1 game final. You could be out with only 1 Loss, but you’ll have played 3 or 4 games.
It has to be done this way to avoid Several Double Headers, and to get all 31 Teams into a single weekend with the parks we have.
No extra Fees are required, as they are part of your league fees.
Any Roster changes (within the Rules) need to be submitted by June 3rd at Noon.
Teams
The schedules are now posted on the “Schedule” tab of the website. If there are any other issues, let us know right away !
Thanks to everyone for attending the Player Registration session on May 4. 53 of the 58 confirmed teams were represented, with the other 5 making alternate arrangements to pay up this week.
Player Registration has been proceeding with several Issues. Mostly with teams that accidentally set themselves up with their own league, so most of those teams were steered in the right direction.
Roughly 80% of the expected 870 players have completed the “On-Line” registration. Your team reps will be contacting you, and everyone MUST be signed up by May 11.
Also: Any players under the age of 18, must also have a Paper copy of the Waiver form, signed by their Parents/Guardians, after they register on-line.
Any outstanding payments, forms, and the collection of the Balls and Line-up cards will be done next week (Apr. 11 & 12) between 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm at the Pepsi Complex.
Players must be Paid and Registered before they play !
We are short on Umpires to start the season, so if anyone is interested, they can Register and Pay SPN to get carded, and then contact Mike Atkinson to be added to the schedule.

Players and Teams.
We have a total of 58 teams this season. Team Entry was closed on April 27th.

Div. 2 and 3 (28 Teams) will play on the Mon/Wed. Div. 1 and 4 (30 Teams) will play on Tues/Thur to start.
As Div. 2 had 15 teams teams, and we can only have 12 total (for scheduling reasons), a decision was made to cycle Div. 2 (in groups of 3 teams) through Div. 1 throughout the regular season, to even out the numbers.
That decision has been made, and was communicated to all Div 1 & 2 teams in an e-mail.
Another note:
The Opening Tourney’s were decided on as follows. Div. 1 & 4 - May 29 to 31. Div. 2 & 3 - June 5 to 7.
ALL Players must all be registered “On-Line” by May 4. Your Team rep will have the details on how to do this.
All Player Payments ($80 per head) will also need to be made by May 4. They will need to be collected by the Team Rep, and brought to Sport Yukon between 5:00 and 8:00 PM on May 4. Team Rep’s only.
We don’t want 850 individuals bringing in cash that night. Reminder we don’t take Visa or Interact. Cash or Chq only.
Assistance with the On-Line registration is available that night as well, for those that are still struggling.
Draft Schedules are being built this week, and will be confirmed on May 5th, and shared (posted) around May 6th or so.
The season will start on May 11, weather pending. Looking good so far !
The 2015 AGM was held with only 20 of 51 teams represented.
Your new Executive for the 2015 season is as follows.
President - Melanie Brais, Vice-President - Mike Atkinson.
Secretary - Meghan Stonehouse, Treasurer - Bud Arnold.
Directors - Heather Mayes, Marcy Ayotte, Kim Montour, Chantal Rozon, April Williams, Tina Chaplin.

Teams are to pay their $350.00 or $400.00 Fees between 6:15 and 7:00 pm that day.
IMPORTANT: There is not a lot of time between this meeting and Season start, so we will be starting on schedules right away!
If Teams are not paid, they will not be added to the schedule! We don’t have the resources to chase Teams around.
Player Fees are being done different this season, and that will be communicated on the 22nd.
Teams Reps will still be responsible for collecting fees, but all Registration is being done individually “On Line”.
Teams are reminded, that if they are entitled to receive a Championship Plaque, they must request it by e-mail before Aug. 30.
Also, we will be building next season’s Division Allignment, so there may be some moves coming, depending on team records.
If there are any special requests to move or stay, let us know what you prefer. Executive decision will be final.
The next AGM is planned for the Spring of 2015. Dates yet to be determined.

Several teams have been questioning a
Rumor
out there, that late games don’t have a time limt.
This is completely untrue, where it was even stated that there was an e-mail sent to this effect.
Well that never happened, and Yes there is a Time Limit on all games, except for the Finals on Sat. Aug. 9.
No new Inning after 9:30 pm or 1 hour and 15 minutes after game start time, if it starts late because of the first game.
Just sharing this with all teams, as you will be Umping several of your own games, with the short supply of Ump’s during the last week of playoff’s.
2 Ump’s have quit due to the abuse, and 2 are leaving on vacation.
Hi Teams.
All Playoff Schedules are now posted. If there are any glaring errors, let us know right away.
The Seeting was done based on Mon. / Tues. Standings, and not the final Stats posted.
If there are any Revisions affecting your team, we will contact you by e-mail.
Reminder - You are playing with your regular season rosters, unless any additions (within lg rules) are made.
Any additions are to be made by Midnight, on Sun. July 27. (Extended from Friday).
No changes will be allowed after that date. E-mail them to this e-mail account.
Teams / Players.
Due to several complaints & requests this season, about players being called out for “Batters Box infractions”, we sent a note out to all the Umpires, expalining that the league wants to revert to last years rule, where a player can stand anywhere they want, in the area of the “Jox box” (the Green turf that are at all of the fields). However if a batter steps on the plate (Strike Mat), or clearly and fully in front of the Mat, before contacting the ball, they are to be called out. Umpires were told to give the benefit of the doubt to the Batter.
Just sharing this with the league as several teams still have to umpire their own games, and may be unaware of the recent change / request of this rule.
The long awaited Stats were finally gathered and are now posted. (Teams tab - Far right)
If there are any glaring errors let us know by e-mail.
Also there are a few missing game scores. Some of the Blanks back in mid May were Rain Outs.
If we don’t get the missing scores, we’ll call them tie games.
Teams:
Please be aware that Softball Yukon, and The Whse CoEd league are not sending out notices of Rain Cancelations, unless absolutely necessary.
We have left it up to the Umpires, and the Teams discretion, on if the game should be played or not. Please plan on showing up ready to play.
If an Umpire calls a game off, due to field conditions, the teams can still decide if they want to play it out or not. (Both teams must agree, or there will not be a game).
But also remember, if you leave huge divots in the mud, the fields will require a lot more work and time, before they will be smooth again.
Executive.
This past weekends Division 1 and 4 Tourney Winners were:
Div. 1 - Dave’s Cleaning Crew winning 13 to 7, over Whse Dental Donkey’s.
Div. 4 A - Bailey’s Pub was victorious over Sam & Andy’s, 16 to 4
Div. 4 B - WPM Eagles won in the 8th Inning, over the For Hire Plumbing Ballwackers, 4 to 3.
Teams.
The Division 2 & 3 Tourney’s are now posted on the “Schedule” Tab.
No One indicated that they were unable to participate, so all teams were included.
If they don’t show, those games will be defaults, as we will not rebuild the schedule.
Hello Teams.
Several questions and concerns have been brought forward to the league Executive, in regards to the Strike Zone / Stike Mats, etc. As per the SPN rule book, they have adopted these strike Mats all across Canada, and the Umpires are being taught to use them at all times. The strike Mat covers Home plate so the Home plate is now considered live, in regards to a Strike being called. When placing the Mat before the game, ensure it is covering Home Plate. Any ball that touches any portion of the Mat is to be called a strike. Of course the Umpires are still supposed to call the ‘Illegal Pitch’ rule if a ball is pitched lower than 6 feet or higher than 12 feet. As you’ve probably noticed, several games are being umped by the teams playing, as we have less than a 1/2 Dozen carded Umps for this season, and several of them are playing, so are unavailable to Umpire
Thanks: Executive
Teams.
Please remember to e-mail in the scores of your games, to the league e-mail account.
Thank you to the teams that have been doing this already. However, We have only got about 2/3 of the results.
Stats will not be posted or updated until early June, when the Stats person returns from vacation.
Teams and Players.
Sorry for the delay. The schedules are now released. They can be viewed on the “Schedule” Tab.
They are also being sent to all the Teams Rep’s by e-mail.
The Complex will not be ready for next week (May 12 to 15), so some teams are getting “Byes” for those nights.
It is expected the Complex will be ready for play on Tues. May 20, as there is no ball on the 19th (Stat Holiday).
Please remember to send in your scores to the league e-mail account.
We are scrambling to get Umpires, and to this point in time we only have 6.
Therefore, be prepared to Umpire some of your own games, until we get more interest.
If you’re looking for an early tourney, Atlin is hosting one in May. Check out the tourneys section on the site.
There are still several questions coming to us, in regards to the SPN approved Bat that can be used in 2014.
The answer we received from SPN, is that the ISF Stamp is not recognized by them, as an official stamp. Therefore an ISF stamp and the newer ASA stamp together, are not considered a legal bat for use within SPN and of course Softball Yukon.
. The stamp you need to see when purchasing a new bat is the USSSA 1.20 BPF.
Attached is the “SPN Announcement” that we circulated last year. It explains that, any of the 3 stamps, on the top of the page, must appear somewhere on the bat. This makes the Bat OK, as long as it not on the “Illegal Bat” list. Now further down on the attached document, there is the newer ASA stamp and also an ISF Stamp. If either is on the bat, and not accompanied by the newer USSSA 1.20 stamp, then it is not legal for use. The league has purchased a Bat testing machine, and will only test bats that are suspected to be dangerous. If a new (USSSA) Bat is tampered with (rolled), the end cap will fall off, and the bat is basically garbage.

The questions are coming in, as to which division, teams will be playing in for 2013.
As per the 2012 AGM last September, here is the list of teams and where the planned division is.
We want to stay with a minimum of 8 teams per division, so new teams will be slotted accordingly, and more moves may also be required.
The final seeting will be determined after the Meet and Greet meeting where the final number of teams will be determined.
Some teams have already started the process of changing divisions.
If you want to move up or down, an e-mail to the league stating the reason, and the proposed roster for 2013 is required.
The Executive’s decision will be final.

Also. We are very short on Umpires (vacations, playing, cancellations, etc).
Do not send anymore negative comments, if an Ump is not present at your game.
Please report the scores to the Stats line, so we can post the updates regularly.
See the Rules Tab, for the new SPN Bat Policy as of Jan 1, 2012.
Several new Bats have been showing up, with only the new 2012 USSSA sticker.
As per the policy, on this link, they appear to be legal.
A list of Banned (illegal) bats can also be found on this link.
The Whse CoEd Lg Opening tourney was a huge success with 14 teams competing in the 2 Divisions.
Congratulations to the Champions of Divisions 1 & 3, from the past Weekend.
In Division 1, the Champions are Wintemute Electric, who defeated Ridge Pub 14 - 12 in a very close Final. 3rd place went to Complete Concrete.
In Division 3, the Champions are Sportslife Ravens, who defeated Sandors 18 - 6 in the Final. 3rd place went to Kubota Hoes.
Divisions 2 & 4 will be having their tourney, this coming weekend, June 1 to 3.
If you want to post an upcoming tourney on the CoEd website, please send us the info.
As you might be aware, we recently added an “Out of Town Tourneys” section on the Home page of the site.
This is where you can post your tourneys, by sending us the information.
Also if you have a team picture or Business card, we might be able to post it on the ‘Teams’ page.
There are restrictions on the type of file, and the size needed, but we can try to make it work.
Due to a few teams changing Divisions, we will reset the Stats for Divisions 2, 4 & 5, starting next week on June 21.
As there were no changes to Divisions 1 & 3, and the fact that the standings are very close at the top, we will be leaving the stats as is for the remainder of the season.
