Changing bats
Rules
Daniel Nevin Asked 9 years ago
Coach,
Can one change bats during a tournament? If so, how often? I would think not in the middle of a single game, but I have no idea.
Sorry if this has been covered; I will try the search function next time.
Thanks!

Hi Dan,
You are not allowed to change your bat during a match against an opponent. However, if you have finished a match and are ready to play a new opponent you can use a different bat for the new opponent.
The only time you are allowed to change bats during a match is if you damage it accidentally.

Hi
Bad language, loud self berating. What is acceptable and what action should the umpire take/
He has three cards white ,yellow and red what are they used for and when/
Hi Stan,
The white card is just for a time out.
If a player commits an offence like shouting or swearing they will usually get a Yellow card which is a warning.
The yellow card is a warning. If they award a point after a second offence they hold up the yellow and red cards together. If the coach or adviser commits an offence the umpire can hold up a red card and send them away from the area. If players commit offences the referee can be called and he can dismiss the player and hold up the red card.
