Registration of Team:

For a tax-exempt entity, you must email a Sales Tax Certificate to Rhonda Ritzi PRIOR to registering your team and paying fees. Register online by visiting CivicRec.

Fees

Fees include league administration by KCP&R, regular season round-robin play, a single-elimination tournament, and one dozen U.S.S.S.A.-approved softballs. Additional softballs will be available at $50 per dozen. Fees for the season plus a single-elimination tournament per team will be $250.00 plus $15.00 tax totaling $265.00. For a tax-exempt entity, a Sales Tax Certificate must be received to have the tax waived.

Umpire fees are $15 per team, per game, and are NOT included in your league fee. Each team will pay the Umpire directly before each game.

Games

There will be two games on fields each night during the regular season in a round-robin season. Teams will play round-robin up to 8 games in each league/division. Random pairings will rotate the schedule so that teams will play approximately the same number of games on each field and approximately half early (6:15 pm) and half late (7:15 pm).

When & Where

  • Games will be played at Lincoln Ridge, Pioneer, and Middleton-Mills parks and will begin promptly at 6:15 pm and 7:15 pm.
  • There will be no games on Memorial Day or Independence Day weekends. 
  • Single-elimination tournaments for both Men’s leagues and for the Co-Ed league will be played on Mondays and Fridays, respectively, at the end of the season. KCP&R will provide softballs during tournaments and you will continue to pay the umpire for each game as you advance in the tournament.

Rules

We play under U.S.S.S.A. rules as well as KCP&R league rules.
