COMBINING CENTRES

THIS ONLY APPLIES TO THE 11U DIVISION

There are a series of results that apply in terms of a baseball centre moving up categories for zone playoffs as a result of combining centres.

The player’s centre population must be included with the originating centre.

Here is a list of the various scenarios that result from combining teams.

1. Baseball centres classified as being other than AAA category may combine for provincial playoffs, provided that they shall be re-classified and moved to a higher category.
2. Of the baseball centres that combine, the baseball centre in the highest category shall be designated the originating centre.
3. For each baseball centre that combines with the originating centre, the originating centre must move up one category; and
4. The number of baseball centres that may combine is limited to the number which will result in the originating centre being reclassified as AAA category.
5. An exemption to the reclassification is that AA Tier 1, AA Tier 2, AA Tier 3 or AA Tier 4 category baseball centre may combine with one A2 category baseball centre without being reclassified if the total population of the two baseball centres which combine does not exceed the population limit of the category.
6. AAA centres may not combine.
7. Under no circumstances may more than 4 baseball centres combine.
