Any team that is reforming from the 2011 season must start the 2012 season in
the same classification (or higher) that they finished the 2011 season unless
otherwise noted in 2012 team classification.
For purpose of classifications, if four (4) or more players from a 2011 team are
on a 2012 team, they are considered the same team regardless of the TEAM
NAME,
MANAGER, COACHING STAFF
or SPONSOR.
The State Office will make final classification
adjustments by the 1st of June of each season. This should give teams
ample time to prepare for State and World Series plans.
