The Basics

  • Standard wiffle ball rules with pitching, hitting, and fielding.
  • Games are played to a set number of innings agreed on before first pitch.
  • Strikes, balls, and outs are called fairly — respect the call.
  • Good sportsmanship is required at all times.

Equipment & Bats

  • Only league-approved wiffle ball bats are permitted.
  • Official wiffle balls are used for all sanctioned games.
  • No modified or weighted bats allowed.
  • Equipment is checked before tournament play.

Conduct

  • Players must be 14 or under to compete.
  • Respect teammates, opponents, and the field.
  • Keep games filmed and shared for the community.
  • Have fun — that's the whole point.

Specific bat regulations and the complete rulebook are confirmed with league commissioners each season.
