. Bats shall have an ASA/USA stamp to be used in the recreational leagues. Balls will be rated .44 – #375 for the competitive leagues and .52 – #300 for the recreational leagues. Ken purchased 7 dozen of each ball for the respective leagues. A motion by Arnie, 2nd by Wayne and all in favor to pay Ken for the $810.29 bill for said balls and allow for the purchase of a wagon.

Every aspect of our executive commitee is represented. Ex and present day competitive and non competitive players, umpires, and hitters. But not one pitcher is on the committee. Shouldn’t that position have a say???
