U-12 Bazinet Rules

Time Limit: Games should not exceed 2:30. No new inning can start after 2:00 from first pitch. (Fall Ball Amendment- 2-hour limit. No new inning after 1:45)

There is a five run limit per half inning. If the trailing team is down by more than five runs going into the final inning, they are allowed to score enough runs to tie the game, but cannot take the lead until extra innings (time permitting).

Players are only allowed to take one base on an overthrow. Players cannot take a base on an overthrow from the catcher to the pitcher or on an attempt to catch a stealing base runner.
