Thank you for choosing MSCR Softball! We are excited to have you with us for Fall Ball!
This year marks MSCR's 100th year of recreation. Softball was the first organized sport MSCR offered to the Madison Community so thank you for being apart of history!
Your league is an 8 team league. Your team will play a modified schedule with 4 games per night. Each team will not play every other team - the schedule has been created at random. The league winner will be determined by the overall record.

Home Run Rule
Each team is limited to 1 over the fence home run per inning. Additional hits over the fence (in fair territory) beyond the 1 per inning will be counted as an out.
Run Rule (AKA Mercy Rule)
Before the time limit expires, a game will be over after 5 innings (4 and 1/2 innings if the home team leads), if either team leads by 15 runs. Note: if the visiting team leads by 15 runs after 5 and 1/2 innings, or 6 and 1/2 innings, the home team will be allowed to begin its' at bat.
After the time limit expires, the game is over immediately if either team is leading by 15 runs; the half inning is not completed.
