Each player receives a team hat, a team jersey, and one pair of white pants. At the end of the season, the league supplies a trophy for each player. The sizing of the jerseys is based on a size breakdown for each age group taken from the sizes given provided by registrants on their forms. The assortment of sizes is an approximation taken from a poll from the registration forms where more than 70% indicated their sizes. For them to be ready for the season, the jersey and pants orders are actually placed before the teams are created.

Jersey, Hat, or Pants Problems: The cutoff date for coaches to report team jersey or pants sizing issues or missing jerseys or hats is April 14. After that, special orders must be placed with Sport Prospect (768-1328) and must be paid for by the player. The same applies for lost jersey’s or lost hats – a special order must be placed directly with Prospect Sports. It usually takes a week to receive the order.

Each player must supply his/her own:

Mitt
rubber cleats or sneakers
socks
athletic supporter (boys)
athletic cup protector (boys - required for catchers, recommended for all other players)
Water bottle

Optional:

Sun Tan Lotion
Ball (to practice, not game)
(check your division’s rules for the correct ball)

Girls: Check your Rules for other restrictions and requirements.
