2)      Head to Head

3)      Runs Allowed

4)      Runs Scored

5)      Coin Flip

Pool games can end in a tie. 

No ties in elimination games. The modified California Tie-Breaker Rules applies if an elimination game ends with a score tied. The game shall continue using a modified California Tie-Breaker Rule until a winner is determined at the end of the next, fully completed inning.

Modified California Tie-Breaker Definition:

Each half inning will start with the bases loaded and one (1) out. Each team will continue the batting order from the previous inning, with the three (3) previous batters occupying the bases, with the last batter occupying 1st base, the next batter occupying 2nd base and the 3rd batter occupying 3rd base. The game will continue until a winner is determined.

Example:
The game ends in a 3-3 tie. The visiting team determines the #4 batter is due up. The team will put the #3 batter on first, the #2 batter on second, and the #1 batter on 3rd. There will be one out assuming to start each half inning.  Both teams will play like this until a winner is decided at the end of a full inning.

Game Reporting - SGSA will provide score cards to umpires for each game.  Scores are reported by the umpires after the coaches have signed the completed score card.

No artificial noise makers are allowed to be used. Examples include but are not necessarily limited to: air-horns, bells, shakers, rattles, drums, etc...

No infield practice for any teams.

No opening ceremony.

Closing ceremony shall include the award of trophies by the Tournament Director or a designated representative (board member or other appointed individual).
