It is the purpose of the NSA to conduct the best possible national and state
tournaments from all aspects.
To achieve this objective, the NSA must have the cooperation of each player,
manager or coach, and sponsor.
We are guests in the city that the tournament is conducted, and nothing should
occur that would reflect adversely on your team, players, our host city, or the
NSA. Therefore, it is required that all teams in the tournament comply with the
following rules:
1) Team managers must have full control of their players at all times. The means
on and off the field.
2) In case of disputed play or decision, team managers or captains may consult
with the game officials. The other players and coaches or sponsors are to be
kept out of the discussion.
3) Managers, coaches, and players are not to fraternize with spectators while on
the playing field. At no time will participants be allowed to smoke on the field
or in the coaching boxes.
4) Managers are to report any unsportsmanlike or derogatory acts by players or
spectators to the tournament director. The purpose here is to prevent any
serious situation developing that would be harmful to the tournament.
5) Managers, coaches, players, sponsors, and teams are liable for suspension by
not adhering to the tournament rules in effect. This could mean suspension for a
game, games, tournament or a longer duration depending on the act or violation.
6) A player, coach, manager, or sponsor, may be suspended for fighting, abusive
tactics, or unbecoming acts that are detrimental and not in the best interest of
the NSA and tournament play.
7) Be careful of your conduct. Be sure that no action occurs that could reflect
adversely on your sponsor, team, or region. Remember that the wrong actions of
even one participant can reflect upon your entire team and the game of softball.
8) Any report by the hotel or hotel management (where any team competing in NSA
championship play is staying) of destruction of property or abuse of hotel or
motel property or personnel will be dealt with very sternly. Team managers and
sponsors will NOT be warned other than through this notice. Failure to pay hotel
or motel bills will result in team disbarment from future NSA play.
