Little League games will be played by National Federation of High Schools (NFHS) rules except for league rule exceptions.  \n2. Defensive replacements from the opposing team: All teams must field nine defensive players every inning. If a team has only 8 (or 7) players, the opposing team will supply 1 (or 2) defensive substitutes. For the first inning, they will supply the last player (or last 2 players) in their batting lineup or other players on their bench. After the first inning, they will supply the last batter (or 2 batters) from the previous inning, or other players (s) on their bench. The defensive substitutes will only bat for their team. The team receiving the defensive substitute(s) will only bat players from their team. A team with fewer than 7 players at the beginning of the game will forfeit the game. However, coaches are encouraged to still play the games for the benefit of the players from both teams. Coaches are encouraged to do what is in the best interest of the players in all other situations. Under no circumstance should a team be penalized with an out due to the number of players in their batting lineup.  \n3. Little League games are 5 innings with no new inning started after 75 minutes (see below in the event of a tie after 75 minutes) .  \nThe game officially starts with the first warm-up pitch thrown from the pitching mound by the home team. Each half-inning will consist of 5 runs or 3 outs. 3 innings must be played to complete a game or 2 ½ if the home team is ahead. After 3 innings, if a team is ahead by 10 runs, the game will be considered complete, or 2 ½ innings if the home team is ahead by 10 runs. Teams are encouraged to play the full 75 minutes so all players have an opportunity for additional game time.  \n4. If a game is tied after the last inning after the time limit (75 minutes for Little League) teams will play an extra inning by placing the last batter from the previous inning on second base. If a batter is left in the batters’ box at the end of an inning, they will bethe leadoff batter the following inning, and the ball-strike count will be reset. The extra inning will begin with 1 out. If the game is still tied after the first extra inning there will be a second extra inning with the last 2 batters from the previous inning placed on 2nd base (the last batter) and 3rd base (the next to last batter), also beginning with 1 out. If after the second extra inning, the game is still tied the game will officially end in a tie. Both teams will be awarded a 1/2 win.  \n5. If a batter is left in the batters’ box at the end of an inning, they will be the leadoff batter the following inning, and the ball-strike count will be reset.  \n6. When time (daylight/safety) is a factor, any game may be terminated by mutual consent of the coaches or at the umpires’discretion. Postponed/ canceled games should be made up as soon as possible. Postponed/ canceled games that are not made up will result in a loss for each team.  \n7. In case of rain, visiting teams should be notified as soon as possible. Check the coaches listing for phone numbers.  \n8. There will be free substitution at any time with the only stipulation being that anyone who has batted in the lineup must bat in the same spot if re-entered. It is not necessary to notify the opposing team of any lineup changes unless requested to do so by the head coach of the opposing team. This should be decided before the beginning of the game.  \n9. Batters, players on deck, and base runners must wear batting helmets (earflaps on both sides, but faceguards are not required) . If they fail to do so after one warning, the umpire shall call them out. All catchers must wear a helmet and throat protector (even on hockey-style masks) . The game will not continue until they do so.  \n10. Little League pitching rubber shall be 45 feet from home plate. There will be 60 feet between bases.  \n11.
