Fields shall be of the official dimensions (full-size, junior, and midget) unless otherwise specified by the sports and athletics supervisor. Fields will be free of stakes, fixtures, bleachers, benches, “gopher holes”, and other obstructions for at least twenty feet outside of the side and end lines.

Grading of skinned infields a minimum of twice per week, May through August, and as needed in the off-season to loosen infield mix, remove surface irregularities, and develop adequate loose
material to enable effective dragging and base area maintenance. Paint foul lines on programmed fields – bi-monthly minimum.
Fill all holes around base areas and pitcher’s mound daily. All fillin g will be performed by a layering, wetting, and tamping process to develop a firm “patch” in the worn areas. Care should be taken to pull back mix moved by the effects of sliding into second and third base.
