Where Is The Sportsmanship?

Rolled bats are banned from our league (BOTH leagues) and yet more people are swinging them than ever before.

If you are caught with a rolled bat you will be suspended for a minimum of 1 year – along with your team rep.

I think the people using these altered bats have no concept of sportsmanship, safety or fair play. These bats are dangerous and they negate our insurance in the process. The people who need to enhance their performance with altered equipment disgust me as they walk around our park acting like they are great hitters when it is just their rolled bat talking.

If you can’t beat my team fairly, then don’t beat us at all. If you can,I will be the first to congratulate you.

PUT THE ROLLED BATS AWAY AND PLAY THE GAME THE RIGHT WAY!!!!

OMAFRA access will be limited to from Gordon street and from McGillivray lane for the next few weeks. Access through Future shop/Canadian tire area will be closed for construction.

From an email distributed at the University of Guelph:

As part of the servicing for Research Park North, Chancellors Way (from the bend at South Ring Road West) will be extended north and westward toward Edinburgh. The University’s contractor, Prior Construction, has advised the closure of a portion of Chancellors Way and South Ring Road West as follows:

  • Road Closed – June 6 -10
  • Limited Access – June 13 -17

Please note that this schedule is based on weather permitting.

I won’t normally post this, but enquiring minds want to know. This was posted on the Sportsfield Status page today:

Tuesday May 17

All City sports fields are open except fields
scheduled to open May 24th

Please monitor weather conditions and refrain
from playing if the fields become saturated.

This page is updated every weekday at 2 p.m.

Need more information? Contact the City’s Facility Booking office.

Office Hours: Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Phone: 519-837-5678
Email: facilitybooking@guelph.ca

Note: this makes it a “game-time decision” if conditions worsen, and teams are expected to show up at the diamonds ready to play unless they have been notified by the league otherwise.
