Sanction Reminder:

We would like to take this time to revisit/remind all parks that intend to apply for sanction about an important (sometimes misinterpreted) requirement. In order for a park to be eligible to sanction with Dizzy Dean Baseball/Softball, a draft MUST be utilized. ALL players in an age group MUST be available for selection by ALL coaches. Select teams or teams kept together from previous years IS NOT allowed.
