Pitch counts limits have been instituted to protect player's arms so we need to track them and adhere to the days of rest rules to make sure no arms are getting overused. League officials periodically check the pitch count logs to make sure that coaches are developing lots of players, not just one or two
Managers will be suspended one game for violating pitch count rules. Pitch counts must be entered within 24 hours after each game. JBO pitch counts are entered via the Westside JBO coaches portal. Pitch count violations in JBO will result in a forfeit of the game in addition to the manager suspension.

Softball Player Pitch Rules
The below information is a summary of Regulation VI in the Little League Rule Book. It is meant as a reference guide to help managers with pitching assignments. This information is not meant for determining rule disputes.

Game Rainout Procedure
Tigard Little League has decided to stop using a phone recording system. All games are to be "Manager Discretion". Our umpires are paid for any games that have been cancelled but for which they were not notified. All managers must use the following process to respect the umpires' time and save the league money:
Game Rainouts or Cancellations
- By no later than one hour before the scheduled start time for the game, the Home and Visiting Team Managers must agree if their game can be played that day due to weather and/or field conditions.
- In the case of a Rainout decision
- Both managers immediately notify their teams.
- The Home Team Manager is required to send an email to umpires@tigarddiamondsports.com with the following information:
- Softball or Baseball and Level (Majors, AAA, etc.)
- Home team
- Away team
- Date
- Time
- Game Location
- Umpires for your game will be notified by the Assistant Umpire in Chief.
Rescheduling Games
For softball and baseball upper levels (Majors, AAA, etc.) that are required to reschedule rainouts, please reschedule rainout games within 1 week of the originally scheduled game.
Managers look at the schedule on the website (be sure to check all levels playing on the field you want, particularly for Softball) for open dates/times OR use the next practice for one of the teams for the rescheduled game.
Home manager (if possible) emails umpires@tigarddiamondsports.com AND scheduler@tigarddiamondsports.com with the following:
- SB or BB and Level (Majors, AAA, etc.)
- Original date of game
- Original home team and away team
- NEW date of game
- NEW time of game
- NEW location of game
Scheduler will move the game in the master schedule in SportsEngine. Assistant Umpire In Chief will assign umpires to the rescheduled game.
