The Rules
How we play the MADE way.

Attitude & Hustle
- Not sprinting through first base = out
- Walking on or off the field = out
- Arguing calls = out (and maybe another!)
- Not sliding when expected = out
Mental Mistakes
- Forgetting to bring in the bat = out
- Striking out looking = 2 outs (when rule is in play)
- Not calling out the base (“1-1-1!”) = runner safe
Uniform Infractions
- Untied shoes = out
- Shirt untucked = out if repeated
- No helmet or hat = out
Safety Rules
- Only 1 on-deck hitter at a time
- No gear left out of the dugout
- Clean up when asked = required
Game Rules
- Coach pitch only — fast-paced and consistent
