Team Names

This is a New Policy for ARML 2009

To make the scoring process friendlier to participants, coaches, parents and ARML officials for the 2009 ARML competition, we are requiring all coaches to apply the following conventions when naming their teams:

• Division A teams will use the code A1, A2, A3, etc to indicate the strength of their teams with A1 being the strongest team and subsequent teams decreasing in strength.



• Division B teams will use the code B1, B2, B3, etc to indicate the strength of their teams with B1 being the strongest team and subsequent teams decreasing in strength.



• Example: Let us say that Wyoming has 7 teams, four are in Division A and three are in Division B.
  
  
  • The four Division A teams will be named as follows:
  • Wyoming A1: Red Sox
  • Wyoming A2: White Sox
  • Wyoming A3: Mariners
  • Wyoming A4: Yankees
  
  
  • The three Division B teams will be named as follows:
  • Wyoming B1: Braves
  • Wyoming B2: Phillies
  • Wyoming B3: Mets

This will enable everyone, including team members, coaches, scorers and parents to easily determine the strength of a team and the division that they will be participating in. All other rules are not affected by this convention.

Please consult the link on this website called "Teams that must compete in Division A" in order to properly place your teams in each division.

The Official Scorer

This Policy Has Been Clarified for ARML 2009

The Official Scorer will be in charge of ensuring that the proper teams are in Division A according to the rules. Click here for clarification. If an adjustment is necessary after the competition has begun, this change will take place immediately.

If a team is found to be in noncompliance with any of the ARML rules, the results will be corrected by the Official Scorer. For example, suppose that Wyoming has four teams competing at ARML; two teams in Division A and two teams in Division B. If one or more of Wyoming's teams in Division B scores higher than any of Wyoming's teams competing in Division A, then that team will immediately be moved to Division A and only be eligible for Division A awards.

The Official Scorer can make these correction before, during, or after the competition has concluded. After a final review by the Official Scorer, the results will be certified as official.
