OYO Coaches:

Thank you for all your efforts for an amazing and memorable Fall Ball season. Your tireless effort and incredible work with your ball club is truly appreciated and genuinely valued by all. As we approach the stretch run of our 19th annual Fall Ball season, below are five timely and important reminders as we prepare for our final two weekends of the regular season — and our Fall Ball rec league tournament in early October.

1. Pre-Tournament Coaches‘ Meeting Is MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28 at 7:45 P.M. at OYO | (Tee Ball coaches do not need to attend this meeting)
Preferably your team’s head coach or, alternatively, a team representative must attend this important and required meeting. This meeting is set for Monday, September 28 at 7:15 p.m. at OYO on Field 2. What’s more, your attendance helps you earn additional coach incentive dollars, and also keeps you eligible to coach in the rec league tournament! (Please note, if needed due to rainy conditions, we will move the meeting indoors to Jenn Park. Announcement will be made the day of the meeting, if needed.)

2. Player Evaluations Must Be Completed Online by EOD on MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28 | (Tee Ball coaches are required to complete this evaluation)
Review this PDF for a complete overview of this process, including how you should properly assess players in comparison to all players in your division and appropriate skills expectations for the age group. Please complete your team’s player evaluations in LeagueApps by Monday, September 28. All player evaluations must be completed via a laptop/desktop computer as the app on your mobile device is not compatible with this feature. Once again, successful completion of this evaluation helps you earn additional coach incentive dollars, and also keeps you eligible to coach in the rec league tournament!

3. Tournament Schedules have been released and all details for Tournament Sunday are available online.
Check out our annual Fall Ball Tournament Central for individual division tournament brackets. The single-elimination tournament is set for Sunday, October 4. Tee Ball teams also will play their final regular season games on October 4, and those games are already scheduled in LeagueApps and will be played on Field 14.

4. Please ensure you and your players adhere to The OYO Way and the Code of Conduct to remain eligible to coach or play throughout the tournament. 
Per the OYO Code of Conduct, any individual who is ejected must sit out the team’s next game — and be reinstated by the league. Let’s work together to keep everyone in good standing, as we have all season long!
