Eats and drinks that are allowed: sunflower seeds, water, sport drinks, (no pop) and gum, as long as the used gum is disposed of in a trash can — the first time Coach Swank steps in gum — no more gum for the season. Players stay in the dugout, you can go say hi to Mom, and Dad, ask them to get you something, but no sitting in the stands or prolonged visits. Not allowed in the dugout — siblings, friends, and relatives wandering around. Road Games We meet at the pavilion behind the left field fence. Dressed in road uniforms — green vest — and ready to go. The coaches will let the All-Stars know beforehand what time to be there. Don’t be late or you get your own ride. Coaches will drive the team to the road ballpark, parents are welcome to leave at this time with the team, — i.e. — Mary and the Bus.
