For 70, 75 and 80… You can have up to Three (3) players that are 1 year younger.
Example: a 70 team can have up to 3 players that will turn 69 in the calendar year that they are playing… So, a 70 team can have up to (3) 69-year-old players. A 75 team can have up to (3) 74-year-old players. An 80 team can have up to (3) 79-year-old players.
65 and up teams can play the 11th defensive player.
Divisions:

Pitching Screens: When they are available, for 70 and above. They will be optional, which means it will be up to each individual team IF they want to use it or not. They will have to be set up where one of the legs lines up with the pitching rubber.
When used. If the 3rd strike ball is hit, and the ball hits the net, it will be a dead ball out. Any batted ball before the 3rd strike ball will be called a foul ball.
The pitcher, if using the screen, cannot make a play on the batted ball, unless the umpire calls an infield fly, in which case they could then.
Pitch Count: 1 & 1 no extra foul
Pitching: A pitched ball must go a minimum of 6 feet and not exceed a maximum of 12 feet from the ground. An illegal pitch should be called while the ball is in the air.
Strike Zone: Any legal pitch that hits the strike mat will be called a strike.
Pitching Rubber: Set at 50 feet and you have up to 6 feet behind the 50 foot rubber.
Courtesy Runner: You can have as many courtesy runners per inning as you want. However, a courtesy runner can only run once per inning and if you have been run for, you cannot be used for a courtesy runner for that inning. Also, if a courtesy runner is on base when it is their turn at bat, they are out on the base and take their spot at bat.
RUN RULE:
