Summer 2018 Registration
We now have a list of teams registered for Summer 2018 season on our website. Please check out the Registration link and let us know if you find any inconsistencies. We already have a few teams who reached out regarding some issues that we are looking into. As we address inconsistencies we will reach out to impacted teams.
There was also a question asked on the process to pick which team is picked from the incoming new teams. We pick the team based on their paypal transaction date. There are some integration issues with paypal so the info during registration time for teams might not be accurate which might have led to confusion.
To be transparent we have added this info under Team links section 'Teams who could not register'. This section also includes contacts of teams who were unable to register so if any team is short on players they can reach out the team contacts for recruiting.

Cricket Pitches at Redmond Parks
Turf grounds are getting damaged at the batting and bowling end. Park authorities have raised a concern around it and asked us to move the pitch for every match. For this they have placed signs and cones on all the redmond parks (details below). we have updated the schedule on the website to denote pitch numbers.
Park authorities will be monitoring the games and if teams are not playing on the designated pitch areas then they will ask the teams to move to the right pitch number and also report to us. This is a very serious issue and we request all teams to adhere to this norm.
The Park Staff just recently put out numbers to represent the different cricket pitches at Grass Lawn fields & Perrigo #1. Signs will be added to the remaining fields when it gets closer to ARCL being on them (Perrigo #2 & Hartman)
Grass Lawn Softball #1: Has pitches 1-6 (3 on each side)
Grass Lawn Softball/Soccer #2: Has pitches 1-6 (3 on each side)
Perrigo #1: Has pitches 1-6 (3 near backstop with cones, and 3 in outfield with signs)

Penalties for Unruly Behavior
We wanted to bring to everyone's attention an important event happened couple of weeks ago between two ARCL teams. Unfortunately, the teams were involved in verbal and physical altercations which was loud and lasted long enough for outsiders watching the game to call the police. The police showed up and the game was called off.
We heard from all parties involved and enforced the following penalties. We want to highlight this particular case and call out the penalties and our reasoning for such penalties so all teams are fully aware of implications of such incidents on teams and league as a whole
- Both teams were penalized $250, 10 points each and 3 additional umpirings
- Umpiring team was penalized $150 fine and 2 additional umpirings
- Captains of both teams were handed suspensions
- Multiple players from both teams were handed suspensions
Firstly, let us explain each penalty.
Both teams were penalized as a team because most if not all individuals from the teams were involved in abusive behavior. The umpiring team was involved as the neutral umpire did not realize the authority he had and should have taken advantage of that authority including warning the teams of calling off the game and/or walking out if the dispute continued. There were players identified by name and confirmed by neutral parties of clearly involved in physical altercation and using abusive language. The captains were penalized as they both failed to do their part to control the situation from escalating.
As you can see the penalties are pretty severe and we want the teams to understand our rationale.
For starters, when teams are playing cricket they are representing the league and the sport. Such behavior in any sport is unwarranted and goes against the spirit of what we stand for. By being involved in such incident any bystanders left the field with a negative perception of the game and league which we have worked very hard to keep professional and fun for all over the

Seatac Parking
Please see the note from Seatac ground authority on parking situation at Seatac ground. Please make sure you only park at designated parking spots and not drive all the way to the ground.
--------------
I wanted to send out a quick note to ask for your help. Please ensure there are no vehicles driven into the field complex where the cricket pitch and softball fields are located. I have had some reports of unauthorized access and cars driving into the field area. For the safety of park patrons, please let all of your teams know that all vehicles need to be parked in the parking lot. I am also following up with the softball users as well.
