THE OFFSEASON JUST GOT A SCOREBOARD.

A team is 3 players, and only a team registration holds a spot. If you have 2, use Start a team: tell us your night and division and we send you a ready-to-forward message for the other parents, and we keep you posted on open spots until Nov 2. Or register each player as a free agent for $95 and we place them on a team. Once the season starts, a team short a player for a week plays with 2 and the empty spot is an automatic out each time it comes up.

High School. Youth is ages 8–14 and not yet in high school; High School is grades 9–12, so 9th grade puts a player in High School whatever their age. A team's division is set by its oldest player: one high schooler on the roster and the whole team plays High School.

The Friday league plays Fridays from Nov 6; the Sunday league plays Sundays from Nov 8. Friday: youth 5–8 PM, high school 8–10 PM. Sunday: youth 4–6 PM, high school 6–8 PM. Your exact hour comes with the schedule on Wed Nov 4. Each week is a 1-hour doubleheader; be in the building 10 minutes before your slot.

You can ask for an earlier slot, a later slot or no preference when you register. Exact slots come with the schedule on Wed Nov 4 and can't be guaranteed: one cage, two teams an hour, and every team in your division shares the same evening.

One parent pays $275 for the team. How the families split it is up to you. Payment is on a secure QuickBooks (Intuit) page, and the charge shows as Everett Advisors LLC on your statement. Free agents pay $95 each.

Their own bat and batting helmet (helmets are required at the plate). Youth: any USSSA or USA bat. High School: BBCOR or wood. Turf shoes or sneakers, no metal cleats.

Games aren't made up or prorated if your team can't make a week. If M4P cancels a night, we add a week. Short a player? Play with 2; the empty spot is an automatic out each time it comes up. Fewer than 2 is a forfeit, so a sub (see below) is the better plan.

Team withdrawals get a full refund through Mon Nov 2. After that there are no refunds, but you can sub a player in.

Full refund if your division doesn't run. The same goes for a free agent we can't place by Wed Nov 4.

Yes. A sub must be in your division's age range and have a signed M4P waiver on file. Text the sub's name to 636-331-1782 before the game. Playoff subs must have played at least one regular-season game for your team.

Games are filmed for highlights and leaderboards. Opt your player out on the waiver if you'd rather not.

Every player's parent or guardian signs the M4P participant waiver before Week 1. The waiver link comes by email to each parent after registration. One parent registers the team and makes the one $275 payment; the other two families only need to sign their player's waiver.

3 players per team. Your division is set by your oldest player: Youth is ages 8–14 and not yet in high school, High School is grades 9–12. One parent registers the team and makes the one $275 payment.

Each week your team plays a 1-hour doubleheader against another team in your division: two games, 6 innings or 25 minutes each, whichever comes first. Be in the building 10 minutes before your slot.

Every ball in play is a hit, out or home run based on what HitTrax measures (exit velocity, launch angle and direction) in that week's ballpark. Its call is final.

Machine pitch, fed by M4P staff, at a speed set for your division and the same for both teams. A wild pitch is a do-over.

3 strikes and you're out. A swing and miss, or a strike you take, is a strike. Fouls count as strikes except with two strikes. No walks, no bunting.

Bat your 3 players in order and keep rotating; the order carries over between innings. 3 outs per half inning.

Play with 2; the empty spot is an automatic out each time it comes up. Fewer than 2 is a forfeit (opponent wins both games).

A sub must be in your division's age range and have a signed M4P waiver on file. Text the sub's name to 636-331-1782 before the game. Playoff subs must have played at least one regular-season game for your team.

Win-loss record, then run differential, then team average exit velocity. Ties in regular-season games stand.

Every team makes the playoffs. Week 5 is a seeded 2-game series decided by total runs across both games. Week 6 is Championship Night: the title series, placement series for everyone else, and a Home Run Derby. A tie on total runs goes to a 3-swing derby.

Bring your own bat and batting helmet (helmets are required at the plate). Youth: any USSSA or USA bat. High School: BBCOR or wood. Turf shoes or sneakers, no metal cleats.

Thrown bats or helmets, foul language or taunting get a player removed with no refund. Team names must be clean; M4P will rename anything that isn't.

Every player's parent or guardian signs the M4P participant waiver before week 1. We email the link to each parent after registration.

Games aren't made up or prorated if your team can't make a week. If M4P cancels a night, we add a week.

Full refund if your division doesn't run or we can't place a free agent. Team withdrawals get a full refund through Mon Nov 2; after that, no refunds, but you can sub a player in.

Games are filmed for highlights and leaderboards. Opt your player out on the waiver if you'd rather not.
