Rules

"We hold these truths to be self evident...

Every league has to have rules. Though no one could ever agree upon an official list for wiffleball, these are our interpretations of such. They are difficult to understand unless you are familiar with the field because a lot of them deal with certain locations or landmarks on the field itself. We don't run bases (out of laziness) so we use points on the field to qualify as specific hits. Just read em' you'll understand as you go along.

1. Any foul ball with less than two strikes is counted as a strike.

2. There are no called strikes.

3. There are no walks.

4. There are no hit batsmen.
