Sunday League Season Update

The Chicagoland Sunday Baseball League held a general informational meeting for its coaches on Saturday, February 2nd. During the meeting, the following information was provided:
  • The bulk of our team's schedule will be developed on March 29th. On the 29th, our coaches will be meeting with the coaches of other teams in the area to create an initial schedule of 10 games. Approximately 5 of these games will be played in Orland Park and 5 will be played on the road in nearby communities. We will probably schedule some additional games prior to April 20th and/or after June 22nd.
  • The regular Sunday League begins April 20th and concludes on June 22nd.
  • The team will also participate in a Memorial Weekend tournament. This tournament will be held on May 23rd, 24th, 25th & 26th. The tournament will begin with "pool play"--in which teams compete for the right to continue to the next round of the playoffs. All teams are guaranteed to play a minimum of three games in this tournament.
  • The Sunday League uses most of the same rules and regulations as our Bronco League. The pitching mound is 48 feet from the plate and the bases are 70 feet. The games are 7 innings, but pitchers are limited to 3 innings per game. A balk warning will be issued (one per pitcher). Steel spikes are not allowed. No bat larger than 2 5/8th inches will be allowed. A continuous batting order will be used as well.

I'll keep you updated through this website as I continue to get more information.
