Babe Ruth 13U Regional Pamphlet 1 Babe Ruth Baseball Pacific Northwest Region Welcome and greetings to all, and congratulations! On behalf of the Pacific Northwest Region of Babe Ruth Baseball, I would like to welcome you to this year’s Regional Tournament. I’d like to take this opportunity to draw your attention to two items of particular interest: Regional Tournament Rules and Regulations, and the concussions awareness training which the Region fully endorses and which will be in effect during all Regional Tournaments. Pacific Northwest Regional Tournament Rules and Regulations – Included in the information package are two documents: 1) Tournament Participant Information, and 2) Pool Play and Tie-Breaker Format. I encourage you to review both of these documents carefully as they are the rules/regulations under which our Regional Tournaments are conducted. These rules/regulations may be different from those under which your State or Provincial Championships are conducted. While these rules/regulations will be addressed in detail at the mandatory Manager’s meeting prior to the opening of the Tournament, it is important that players and parents understand them as well. Concussion Awareness – Most sports fans are aware of numerous player injuries as a result of concussions in both professional and amateur sports. Players in professional hockey, baseball and football have suffered concussions which have resulted in them missing not only a few games but also the rest of their season, and in some cases even more time. As a result of the increasing number of concussion incidents, the Pacific Northwest Region mandates concussion awareness training for players, their parents, and their coaches. It also mandates that any player suspected of sustaining a concussion be removed from competition and not be allowed back into competition until the player has received written clearance from a licensed health care provider trained in the management of brain injuries. Please be aware that this will be strictly enforced during all Tournaments. Best of luck to all participants. Play great baseball and experience good sportsmanship throughout the tournament.
