| About the Capital District Church Softball League | Equipment Required |
| The Capital District Church Softball League (CDCSL) is an official Amateur Softball Association (ASA) Modified Pitch Men’s League and observes all ASA rules except for certain “league rule modifications” that are detailed in the “Rules” link. Twelve regular season games will be played in 2019 on Mondays between April 29th and July29th. No games are scheduled for May 27th, July 1st and August 5th. These dates are designated as automatic rain out make up dates for “league-wide” cancellations due to rain. Rainouts that are not “league-wide” due to individual field conditions, etc. should be made up on the earliest possible date by the agreement of both team captains. The first round of the playoffs will be held on Monday August 12th. The League Championship Series (Best-of-3) will be held on Monday, August 19th, Monday, August 26th and Monday, September 2nd (if necessary). An alternate date for a needed Championship Game 3 can be agreed upon by both team Captain’s with the approval of the Commissioner. The Championship can be reduced to a single game at the discretion of the Commissioner, due to excessive rainouts, the number of teams in the league or for any other reason. The league schedule, number of regular season games and Championship format is subject to change. |
There is a list of
illegal bats
on the ASA web site.
All teams must have five NOCSAE approved batting helmets and a catchers mask with throat protector in order to play. 
In addition, providing bases for the game are the responsibility of the home team. The league uses a standard thick rubber home plate, pitcher’s plate (rubber) and thick, bag style bases.

Before each 2020 regular season game, each team will pay a single umpire $31. | Field location and directions are due to the commissioner as soon as they are known. Each church team must provide its own proof of insurance to its home field. The CDCSL or its Board of Directors does/do not arrange, recommend or approve of fields. The use, condition and insurance coverage of any field used for games is the responsibility of the team and the Sponsoring Church. |
