All participants must sign the proper forms before playing. 
THE FORMS ARE FOUND HERE:
Ground Rules & Announcements page

 Balls: ONLY TEXAS SOFTBALL HALL OF FAME BALLS GURU cor. 44 
We play ASA with rule modifications.

Other rule changes in 2010: 1. The height limit on a pitch is now 10 feet. 2. The pitcher may deliver a pitch from up to 6 feet behind the rubber. 3. Any line drive which hits the pitcher or in the judgment of the umpire would have hit the pitcher, if it had not hit his glove first, is a dead ball, batter is out, and no runners may advance. If the ball hits the ground or pitching plate before hitting the pitcher, it is a live ball. That bat may also be confiscated by the umpires, the Director, or the Director’s representative for testing purposes. Failure to surrender the bat when requested to do so will immediately disqualify the player from eligibility to participate and will cause a forfeit of any win for his or her team.  

The League line is 281-342-0789-3 The Weather line is 281-342-0789-6 

 The bat committee recommended and the director has approved the following list of BANNED BATS from all Tuesday Leagues. The Cannon BoomBah, Combat Lady Virus, Virus Morphed, Virus Enhanced, Scott Brown Virus, Virus, Virus Gear, and Virus Plaque, DeMarini Geezer, MIKEN Freak, Freak Limited, Freak Plus, MSF Freak, Psycho Supermax, Super Freak Maxload, Ultra, Ultra II, Ultra II Advanced, Ultra Maxload,  the WORTH RESMONDO Mutant White, SBTTJH Titan JH 120,  2009 WORTH Titan Resmondo 120, the 5.4 Resmondo Titan Red, 5.4 Resmondo Titan White, ANY BAT WHICH RATTLES, and others TBA. There is a ban rule on ALL Miken bats except for the Miken Red Recoil and temporarily, the Miken 2010 ASA approved bats are allowed. The Miken 2010 Blue Freak Plus is banned. The consequences of using any of these bats are ejection of the bat, the batter is out, a dead ball is declared, and all base runners return to their bases. Ejection of the batter from the game is required, if in the judgment of the umpire, he or she argues excessively or comes to the plate a second time with a banned bat. Additional suspensions or consequences may be added by the Director. Safety is more important than winning and cheating by using illegal, altered, or banned equipment is unsportsmanlike and unacceptable. Bat rings, pre game inspections, and closer monitoring of bats will be done more this year. The bat committee has other bats under review at this time. John Osborn is the committee Chairman. Also, just because a bat is not on the banned list does not automatically mean it is approved. It is always a good idea to check with the Director before making a major purchase.

2010 League Payment Policies & FEES:

The Softball League Entry Fee for Tuesday Men's - $355.00

Umpires: $12 per game (10 Games Per Season)

2010 Annual ASA Sanction Fee is $25

ALL ENTRY AND SANCTION FEES MUST BE PAID IN FULL ON OR BEFORE THE 1ST LEAGUE NIGHT. Teams who do not pay in full on Week one risk being removed from the schedule.

Altered or Illegal Bat Policy Effective: November 2, 2008

If Texas Softball Hall of Fame, an umpire, or any player, thinks that an “altered” or “illegal” bat (as defined in accordance with the applicable softball governing body) is being used, Texas Softball Hall of Fame has the right to inspect the bat.  If Texas Softball Hall of Fame feels that further inspection or testing is needed, Texas Softball Hall of Fame also has the right to confiscate the bat. The bat will be returned once such further inspection and testing has been completed.  If it is determined that the bat has been altered or is illegal, Texas Softball Hall of Fame  has the right, in its sole discretion, to either suspend the offending player, the bat owner, or the whole team from playing in Texas Softball Hall of Fame events, in either league play and/or tournaments, for whatever time period Texas Softball Hall of Fame deems appropriate.  If a suspected offending player or bat owner does not allow Texas Softball Hall of Fame to confiscate the bat, then Texas Softball Hall of Fame will also have the right, in its sole discretion, to either suspend the offending player or the whole team from playing in Texas Softball Hall of Fame events, in either league play and/or tournaments, for whatever time period Texas Softball Hall of Fame deems appropriate. 

The responsibility for knowing whether a bat is altered is that of the user and the owner of the bat.  If an individual uses an altered or illegal bat in Texas Softball Hall of Fame event, the punishment/suspension will be imposed without regard to what the individual knew about the bat being altered.  An individual must know that his bat is not an altered bat, if he uses it in Texas Softball Hall of Fame   events.  If he does not know that the bat is altered, the individual can still be suspended. The fact that the individual did not know that the bat was altered is not a factor in imposing the suspension. The question is only whether the bat is altered or not.

In addition to the rules and policies of the governing sanctioning bodies, altered bats are bats, which (1) had the surface of the barrel or the taper changed in any way such as by sandpapering or applying a solvent to the surface such as fingernail polish remover or by any other means, (2) had the plug removed/replaced or changed in any way, (3) had the knob removed/replaced or changed in any way, (4) had anything removed or added to the inside or outside of the bat other than tape at the handle or knob, (5) are subjected to pressure in any manner that exceeds that of striking the bat against an approved ball traveling at game like speeds and such excessive presume would include, but is not limited to, any compression, rolling, placing in a vice, or hitting a stationary object such as a pole. 

Cracked, worn (paint/lettering wear is not a problem so long as the bat can be identified and has the appropriate BPF marking, but any wearing of the bat material or identifying paint or BPF wear will be cause for removal) or damaged bats are not altered bats, but will also be subject to removal from play by Texas Softball Hall of Fame or the umpires.  Such cracked, worn or damaged bats will not result in a player suspension, unless the player or team returns the offending bat into play after it has been removed or the bat is also altered.

Texas Softball Hall of Fame is intent and serious on eliminating altered and illegal bats from its events and rental facilities. Sportsmanship, fairness, and safety are high priorities for those who choose Texas Softball Hall of Fame and remain its loyal supporters. If you do not value sportsmanship, fairness, and safety, then please make a choice to not play with those who do.

 "If you respect our history and if you care about our presence,
