Why Rumpke Ballpark

As you shop around for your softball needs, we would like you to keep the following in mind:

1. Rumpke Park is an Amateur Softball Association Hall of Fame member and is the oldest original complex in Cincinnati. The Ballpark staff members are veterans, offering years of experience and a tried and true operation style.
2. Day-to-day field conditions are top notch. When there are adverse weather conditions, no other place comes close to preparing your fields for play like Rumpke.
3. Whether you are a Major team or a C, D, E or F team, Rumpke Ballpark’s tiered league system allows teams to be rated and moved up or down in leagues, setting the standard for competition in Cincinnati
4. We are honored to host many of the most prestigious events in the country – including the largest tournament of its kind in the nation - the Metro! Rumpke Ballpark has hosted the Metro for more than 22 years.
5. Managers are V.I.P. We know you work hard to keep the team active and happy and the V.I.P. pass provides you with access to Rumpke Park at no charge for all events.
6. We have adjusted league rules to assist managers as they struggle to keep their teams together, including:
• We never have more than four game rounds a night, eliminating the late night games.
• To avoid long delays and early game conclusions, Rumpke Ballpark allows teams to implement a 1 & 1 count with an hour time limit, followed by a one pitch format until games are finished.
• If 11, 12, 13, or 14 of your players show up for a league game, you may bat them all in a continuous order. If you are short players, but have at least eight players, we will allow you to play without forfeit.
• Our 70-foot bases aide your defensive game.
• Base stealing in all divisions of men’s play allows you to get your athletes involved.
• A reduced number of home runs allows you to play a more complete, multi-dimensional game including all assets of play.
