RULES

  • Contestants will use a bat provided by the softball team (various sizes and weights will be available) with a representative from Highlander Softball pitching regulation softballs on a line
  • The contest will be comprised of 3 rounds
  • Round 1: Will begin promptly at 3:00.  Each turn will be comprised of 10 swings by the contestant.  Batters do not have to swing at every pitch and a hit, missed, tipped or foul ball is counted as a swing.  After 10 swings, the turn is over and the number of home runs will be recorded for the turn. Contestants have the option of purchasing unlimited extra turns until 7:00.  After 7:00, no new entries will be taken.  The 5 contestants with the most home runs in a single turn at the end of the round will advance.
  • Round 2: Will begin at the completion of Round 1 at approximately 7:30.  The same rules in regards to swings apply.  The 3 contestants with the most home runs in their turn will advance.  In the event of a tie, both contestants will advance.
  • Round 3: Will begin at the completion of Round 2.  In this round, contestants will have 6 “outs” to hit as many home runs as possible.  An “out” is any ball that is swung at that is not a home run.  The contestant with the most home runs at the end of the round is the winner.  Ties will be broken in a sudden death format.
