Code of Ethics

    SSUSA Code of Ethics contained in the official SSUSA rule book will be expanded as follows for MBSSA:

    • A sense of camaraderie and sportsmanship will prevail. Use of foul, abusive, or vulgar language will not be tolerated and could result in ejection or suspension.
    • A player who intentionally injures, or attempts to injure an opposing player will be ejected and subject to suspension from the league. This includes a base runner intentionally running into a defensive player.
    • Any player, manager, or other person connected with MBSSA who is (a) involved in a physical fight or shoving match with another player, manager, umpire, MBSSA officers or commissioners, spectator or other person, or (b) who exhibits any act that is intended to injure any such person or (c) who displays a verbal or abusive attack toward any such, shall, after notice and an opportunity to be heard, be subject to suspension of one game, multiple games, or of one or more years depending on the severity of the violation. The penalty will be determined by the Executive Board. This rule applies at any MBSSA event.
