Baseball Competition Structure: Player survey - intermediate analysis

J�r�me Legris — 2011-10-14

A Player survey was launched a month ago to gather information directly from the players relative to demographics and their feeling about the competition structure. Although the survey will keep running in view of gathering further data, here is an intermediate analysis.

Foreign Player Rule - Important correction !

J�r�me Legris — 2011-10-12

An important correction has been made to the Foreign Player Rule as published in the orignial version of the Competition Structure 2012-2015. The correct version reads as follows:

Foreign players:

- Non-EU nationals

- Max. 3 foreign players in lineup at anytime

- Exception: special request to KBBSF Board (before licence request) with sufficient elements indicating baseball is not the player’s main reason of stay in EU.

KBBSF unveils Competition Structure 2012-2015

J�r�me Legris — 2011-10-11

KBBSF today unveils the much expected Competition Structure 2012-2015.

Following much discussions with the clubs and consulting with CUS and players, there are few dramatic changes to the competition structure being made. Apart from minor gameday/time modifications (always with flexible scheduling options), the most notable change foreseen is the switch to Sunday doubleheader games in 1BB as of 2013. However, final decision will be made following further analysis, notably of the doubleheader format introduced in 2BB-T4.

Other notable changes relate to Trained/Untrained players and Foreign players rule. The registration of 2nd teams in the competition is also clarified and KBBSF is intent to control coaching activity to foster better baseball/softball on the field.

Last but not least, KBBSF is introducing a new competition: Youth Softball. Following the success of the Belgian Softball Academy and the rising number of youth softball players, KBBSF believes our younger girls/ladies have earned themselves a competition of their own.

Competition Structure 2012-2015
Gamedays 2012-2015 (tentative)

The Sports Reglement will next undergo extensive update to reflect the structure changes as well as other modifications necessary in view of issues that came up this year. It shall be made available to the clubs together with the 2012 registration forms by December 15th at the very latest.

Also to be noted that KBBSF has requested CUS to look into the possibility of abandoning KBBSF-specific baseball & softball rules to switch to the MLB Official Baseball Rules and ISF Official Softball Rules. More info to follow...

J�r�me Legris — 2011-10-03

On an exceptionnaly warm and sunny day in Brussels, Manneken-Pis' 876th costume was officially unveiled: a National Team Uniform of the Royal Belgian Baseball & Softball Federation.

After an official ceremony at City Hall, a fairly large crowd paraded on the Grand Place and walked to Manneken Pis behind the Meyboom Fanfare. Preceeded by a collective singalong of Take me out to the ballgame, the costume was finally unveiled as Manneken Pis burst out with some 6-7 meters splashes to salute the crowd.

In the framework of the 75th annniversary of KBBSF-FRBBS, the costume donation is also symbolic of the Federation's aim to target youth development through its brand new promotional campaign titled Play-ball.be !

2 Belgian Academy coaches in Arizona

J�r�me Legris — 2011-09-19

Two Belgian Academy coaches in Arizona this Fall.

The Maryvale complex, Spring Training home of the Brewers

Belgian Academy coaches Filip Van Der Meiren and Christophe Dassy will travel to Arizona, for 2 weeks. They will attend the Fall Instructional League from the Milwaukee Brewers, in Maryvale, the Spring Training home of the team, located near downtown Phoenix.

At the end of 2010, the European baseball Coaches Association launched its EBCA Coach Exchange Program thanks to a collaboration with MLB as well as various baseball programs in the States.

In 2010, Dassy was awarded a spot with the Kansas City Royals thanks to an EBCA Award received 2 years earlier.

This Spring, 3 European coaches were selected by EBCA to go in US organizations for 10 days for a lifetime experience.

Today, it's Filip Van Der Meiren, former national team player, familiar with the USA as he played at Bellevue University earlier in his career, who has been selected by the EBCA to represent the organization for its MLB spot in Instructional League.

"This is a lifetime opportunity that was presented to me, here. Spending time in this professional environment will be an awesome experience", says the 33 year old Academy coach.

"It’s a great chance to learn things you can’t learn at clinics. It’s the hands-on instruction that any coach dreams about".

Dassy, will also take part to the trip as the EBCA liaison in Phoenix. Both coaches will take part to on-field activities and will be able to see the top young prospects from the Brewers as well as gather information from the coaching statff.

"Sitting in the clubhouse next to a former Cy Young Award and getting to watch tomorrow's stars in action is certainly very exciting." says Dassy. "You learn a lot there. For example, last year I came home with a ton of outfield drills. And the academy outfielders were pleased to see new routines in place. It's also humbling to be in that environment because you realize that, the road is still very long for us, as coaches, to get even halfway to the knowledge that some of these pro coaches have."

The typical day will be to arrive early at the ballpark, take part to the coaches meeting, get to the field for early work until lunch time, then go to the afternoon game.

in the meantime, they will be able to pick the brains from their host in order to bring it all back to Belgium to help the game.

The 4 Belgian Academy coaches at the MLB Academy in Tirrenia. From left to right: Serge Marter, Filip Van Der Meiren, Christophe Dassy, Jerome Sana

This trip is the icing on the cake of a great season for Belgian baseball.

With the Senior National Team going back to Europe's A-Pool, the junior team surviving their A-Pool, a first participation from the Belgian Academy to the European Academy tournament, 1 player selected for the MLB Academy, 4 coaches invited at the MLB Academy and the performance from Hoboken in the Netherlands to lock a spot in the Euro Cup for the 2011 champion to be decided in a few weeks, Belgian baseball is on the right track. Sure, there is a lot of work ahead and important decisions to make but it's encouraging to see some achievements already.

Sure, the next time that 2 Belgian coaches will be awarded such an opportunity is not for tomorrow but the EBCA is awarding 4 to 5 spots every year to European coaches. So, maybe next year, another Belgian coach may be headed to the US or somewhere else, if he gives it a shot.

Visit the EBCA Exchange blog from the 25th of September for more info about this journey.

Flanders West Captures First-Ever Belgian Championship

Jean Lardinois — 2011-07-06

In Hoboken, home of the Pioneers, Flanders West beat Flanders East 11-4 in the finals to capture the 2011 Belgium Little League Championships. It was revenge for last year, when East captured the title by triumphing over West in the final in Merksem.

Lucas Rizzi led the attack with a two-run triple in the third inning and the West rolled from there. East was one strike away from going down on mercy rule in the fifth, trailing 11-0. But it rallied with two homeruns, including a three-run shot by Yann Van Den Brande.

Gregg Mareels and Damien Todd handled the pitching duties for the victorious West.

After the final out, the winning team ran around the field to the tune of We Are The Champions.

Overall, it was another great tournament for the Belgian Little League.

Baseball - Olympic Reinstatment Campaign

J�r�me Legris — 2011-06-23

Lausanne, 22 June 2011

Message from the President of the International Baseball Federation,

Riccardo Fraccari.

On the eve of Olympic Day, the President of the International Baseball Federation issued the following statement to baseball's national federations:

"The International Baseball Federation is leading the campaign for the return of our sport onto the program of the 2020 Olympic Games. The success of this campaign will need the support of the entire baseball community, especially the strong collaboration of the National Federations. All of our efforts must be well-coordinated to maximize and amplify our message that our sport encourages Olympism and that our values are in line with the Olympic movement.

"It will be on On July 4th of this year that the IOC Executive Board will officially select a small number of sports to begin thoroughly evaluating for possible inclusion onto the 2020 Olympic Programme, and our institution remains optimistic about the initial hurdle. Further ahead at IOC Session in 2013 in Buenos Aires, the Programme will be finalized. During this important period under evaluation, we must clearly demonstrate that the development of baseball would be greatly enhanced and impacted, if it were resubmitted onto the Programme. Additionally, we need to refer to the benefits and growth of our sport due to the fact that it was an Olympic medal sport from 1992-2008. At the same time, we must prove that baseball will add value to the Olympic Games—and not simply commercial value, but with ideals like inclusiveness, tradition, sportsmanship and excellence, to name a few.

"I can confirm that this is not just a campaign of the IBAF; this is a campaign that invites the entire baseball family to participate and become active by engaging the international sports community. But before we act on behalf of Baseball’s Olympic Reinstatement Campaign, I strongly suggest that all of our communications in its name share a common theme, which will help to give an image that our movement is serious, well-directed and well-coordinated. At this moment, ALL OF US can immediately implement the use of the official reinstatement logo on all official communications (newsletters, outgoing e-mails, letterheads, etc.), which will allow us to gain exposure quickly and with no impact on budget figures.

"In the future, we will be organizing press conferences and activities at strategic locations/events to further promote and strengthen the reinstatement campaign. We will need to keep the entire community aware of these events to help publicize and become involved in them. We started out with a successful campaign launch in Taipei that was well covered by the press. We need to continue on this momentum together in order to accelerate this process and gain as much exposure as possible.

"With regard to digital media, the IOC closely watches the activity and checks the number of “followers” of respective International Federations on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Therefore, we also need to refer as many people to IBAF through these channels. The IBAF office is preparing instructions for everybody in this regard, as well.

"Also for your awareness, a page dedicated to the reinstatement campaign is currently being constructed at ibaf.org. This will be a point of reference for our movement and we will be able to link to this site. Upon completion, the IBAF office will forward everybody the exact address of the webpage."

Duo of Belgian academy players selected for the MLB European Summer camps

J�r�me Legris — 2011-06-15

Belgian baseball academies are starting to collect dividends for their efforts from the past few years.

Shortstop Theodore de Bellefroid (Namur Angels) earned his second straight selection for the MLB European Academy taking place in August, in Tirennia – Italy.

He is the first Belgian player to earn that honor in consecutive years since the MLB European Academy was created in 2005.

Like every year, numerous former MLB players and coaches will be working with the top 55 prospects from Europe and Africa in front of an array of scouts from MLB organizations. Since the creation of the MLB European Academy, close to 90 players have signed professional contracts with MLB organizations and much more have gone to the US to play college baseball.

On the reserve list for the event, 3 more Belgian players. Sam Boermans (Borgerhout Squirrels), Robin Roevens (Port of Antwerp Greys) and Ben Van Nuffel (Mortsel Stars).

Roevens, a reserve for the August event is also selected for a new MLB-organized event, the MLB European pitching academy that will be taking place in July for one week in Amsterdam, working with a staff led by former Red Sox pitcher Bruce Hurst.

MLB monitored the Belgian Academy last year and is actively supporting it since this Winter with equipment and envoy coaches. Belgium was also represented for the first time at the MLB Academies tournament held in Regensburg in April.

KBBSF-FRBBS supports Think Pink

J�r�me Legris — 2011-06-10

As it celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2011, the Royal Belgian Baseball & Softball Federation (KBBSF-FRBBS) is proud to announce it has officially engaged in supporting Think Pink in raising awareness for the fight against breast cancer. We believe this is a truly unique, innovative and creative collaboration between sports & health organizations.

KBBSF-FRBBS embraces the opportunity to combine its promotion for Women Softball with a meaningful purpose in raising awareness for the fight against breast cancer.

Throughout its 2011 season, KBBSF-FRBBS will hence be selling pink baseballs, with all proceeds going to Think Pink.

Balls are sold € 5,- apiece. Clubs are invited to purchase boxes (12) to re-sell to players and fans via their clubhouse. Orders can be placed by email to the KBBSF-FRBBS Secretary: secretariat@frbbs.be or secretariaat@kbbsf.be

Although this initiative is a very first step, KBBSF-FRBBS does intend to shortly develop additional initiatives to keep on supporting the fight against breast cancer, notably through charity exhibition games.

J�r�me Legris — 2011-06-09

The House of Sports in Berchem will be undergoing major renovation. This renovation work will start within the next few weeks and should take about one year to complete. In the meantime, the VBSL Secretariat will remain available but relocated to the 2nd floor of the House of Sports.

The move is planned to take place next week: June 14-17. All efforts will be made during that time for the Secretariat to remain available by phone & email. However, please plan any administration (ex. licence requests) accordingly to avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Academy coach in Arizona with the Kansas City Royals

J�r�me Legris — 2010-10-08

Belgium Baseball Academy coach Christophe Dassy is currently in Surprise (Arizona) at the Fall Instructional league from the Kansas City Royals. The 36 year old coach from Namur was awarded this opportunity thanks to the European Baseball Coaches Association that had a spot open in the Coaches Development Program of Major League Baseball. MLB invites the selected coaches and hosts them in Instructional League programs for a period of 2 weeks where they are on the field all day, 6 days a week and can learn from the best teachers in the game and work with the stars of tomorrow.

A coaching staff highlighted by Jack Waloof, author of the book "Hit like a Big Leaguer" and former hitting coach for players like Tony wynn, Derek Lee, Edgar Renteria, John Kruk... Also, former MLB manager John Wathan, 1st base coach Rusty Kuntz and recently retired catcher Vance Wilson. Among the future stars, 2009 1st round draft pick Aaron Crow, 2010 1st round pick and former USA Team captain Christian Colon, College World Series Champion Whit Merryfield, as well as prized latino prospects like Arteaga and Calixte who will for sure impact the club within a few years. On the menu, a game every day, most of the times preceded by a full
workout where the 60+ players work on fundamental skills as well as team offense and defense and conditioning.

It's been over 10 years since a Belgian coach received that opportunity and this year, only 3 spots were awarded by MLB for international coaches. It sure is a sign of the good ground work laid down by the Belgium Baseball Academy and the recognition that starts to show for that work.

Invitation to host 2011 European Cup Slowpitch

Belgium Softball is extending an invitation to all clubs to apply for hosting the 2011 European Cup Slowpitch.

Please contact Jacques Reinenbergh.

Belgian national team players join the European Player showcase in Florida

J�r�me Legris — 2010-09-23

Belgium will be well represented at the European Player showcase from the 23rd of September to the 2^nd of October.

Ben Van Nuffel, Stijn Janssens (Mortsel Stars), Sam Boermans (Borgerhout Squirrels), Thomas Vandenabeele, Florentin Goyens and Matthieu Deltombe (Namur Angels), all members of the junior National team that clinched a spot last August for the Euro Cup Junior 2011, will be playing 6 exhibition games through 3 different cities.

It’s the second edition of the European Player showcase. Last year, a smaller group played only a couple games in North Carolina.

This year, thanks to the creation of the Belgium Baseball Academy, our country was awarded some spots for this improved version of the showcase. Bill Holmberg (Italian Academy) and Brian Farley (Dutch Academies coordinator) will lead the group highlighted by highly touted prospect and Dutch vice champion starting shortstop Nick Urbanus.

Their journey will start in St-Petersburg. They will then travel to Talahasee to finally end up in Kissimee at the Spring complex from the Atlanta Braves. A long list of College recuiters will attend those practices and games and hopefully some of the kids will receive the opportunity to play in the States next season.

We wish all the best to these players who will, at the very least, get a great living and playing experience from this trip.

Schedule:

10am Doubleheader (6 Innings) at Al Lang Field in St. Petersburg, Florida

Monarchs lead off Belgium 'Old Timers' League

J�r�me Legris — 2010-09-15

The Monarchs are Belgium's inaugural 'Old Timers' League team.

Assembled by a bunch of players that have left the competition yet still long to keep playing the game and enjoy their passion, the team intends to play in true spirit of the game, donning the wear of yesteryears.

The Monarchs played their very 1st game this Tuesday Sept. 14 against a Brussels Kangaroos squad happy to get a scrimmage game in. It was good sport and plenty of fun.

The Monarchs hope that the setup of an Old Timers' League will keep players in the game longer by providing an alternative opportunity to play, on occasions instead of a strict schedule and for fun instead of competition. Clubs/players interested in setting up a team should get in touch with the TECCOM. An official list of Old Timers' teams will be published for the 2011 season so that plenty of friendly games may be arranged.

Belgian champions Flanders East loses tough game to Czech Republic in quarterfinals

Jean Lardinois — 2010-08-03

Flanders East's run to the European Little League championships in Kutno, Poland ended Sunday with a tough 5-3 loss in the quarter-finals to the team from South Moravia, Czech Republic. Flanders East secured a spot in the quarters with a 14-10 win over Lithuania on Saturday. Rob Lewis and Jordy Van Nuland each homered to pace the victory.

The week started off rough on Tuesday with a 13-2 loss to Haarlem, the representative from the Netherlands. But on Tuesday, Belgium bounced back, thrashing the hometown Polish team 11-1. Losses to England and Italy set up the dramatic game on Saturday.

Two teams with 1-3 records battled for the last spot in the quarters. It was win or go home. Belgium responded, extending the dream another day.

On Sunday, however, the Czechs were too strong. "The kids did fantastic," said Robert Van Nuland, a parent who accompanied the team.

Flanders East made it to Kutno by beating Wallonia, Flanders West and Brussels in the Belgian Little League championships, July 9-11 in Merksem. It was the first time four all-star teams had ever competed for the right to represent Belgium in the European Little League championships.

Baseball Cadet National Team report from Eindhoven

J�r�me Legris — 2010-07-23

The Baseball Cadet National Team is competing at the European Championships A-pool this week in Eindhoven. This is their first trip back in the A-pool for some time now and they have gone against a very strong competition.

The Belgian pool was probably the strongest, pitting them against perenial European powerhouses Italy, The Netherlands and Germany. Toughing it out, the Cadets came up shorthanded and lost their 3 pool games.

The final round begins today and will see the Belgian cadets play Russia and Austria to defend their right to remain within the A-pool.

Senior National Team report from Stuttgart

J�r�me Legris — 2010-07-20

As the European Championships loom on the horizon, the Belgium Baseball Senior National Team is alreday on-site to fine tune their preparation.

Head Coach Sven Hendrickx reports:

Belgium played 2 useful exhibition games against Germany this WE. The organisation at and around the fields is very good . The German Team has a lot of support of the German people, which we expected , but also Belgium was welcomed with a warm applause . We expect this trend to continue . The accommodation for team Belgium is very good and adequate enough for us to focus on the task at hand . The people from the hotel are very friendly and helpful. Now follows the summary of the 2 exhibition games, during which both Belgium and Germany were able to use multiple pitchers .

17/7 , Heidenheim

Belgium 2 – 11 Germany

After a very long drive and a very quick check in at the hotel , we had to rush to the game to get started . We played at one of the EC venues , being Heidenheim. Weather conditions were not excellent due to the rain , but the forecast was good . Game 1 with Belgium as hometeam : our starter was TJ Antonacci . The 1^st inning we scored one run and we scored our 2^nd run in the 3^rd . In the meantime the German Team was held scoreless . It was only in the 5^th inning that Germany tied the score . We didn’t score anymore although we had lots of baserunners but the German defense was excellent , but we had our chances. On the other hand the German team chipped away and extended the scoring at the rate of 2 runs an inning . Final score 2 – 11 . In this game we used 6 pitchers of which 2 made their National Team debut .

Standouts : Antonacci , 4 innings pitched , 3 K’s , 0 BB’s , 4 hits

Dille 2/2 , 2 RBI

Heyrman 2/5

18/7 , Ulm

Germany 10 – 2 Belgium

Our starting pitcher for game 2 was Robbe De Jongh . Again Belgium was good offensively in the first part of the game : 1 run in the second and 1 run in the 3^rd inning . Our starter allowed 3 runs in as many innings when again we were able to bring in pitchers to gain experience at this high level of play . Unfortunately we faced some though and excellent pitching on the German part and again we were not able to extend our scoring . Again the German Team was ready and well prepared for our meeting . They were strong and disciplined at bat which resulted in a gradual increase of the scoring throughout the rest of the game . Final score 10 – 2 .

Standouts : Gonthier , 3 IP , 2 K’s , 0 BB’s , 2 hits

Ribbens 2/5 , 1 RBI

Roevens 1/1

Heyrman 2/4

Knollenburg 2/4 , 1 RBI

Conclusion :

As mentioned these were very valuable and useful friendlies. Team Belgium will use these game as a jumping board to the EC . We were able to lead or stay very close until the 5^th in both games . In the latter part of the games , the relief-pitching of the Germans proved very strong . Our relievers had to deal with some inexperience in facing a though team and we made a couple of mental mistakes . All in all we have a good feeling about the 2 games. The team spirit is high and we are very motivated . We have a loose atmosphere and everybody feels good . We were able to work our pitching in a rotation which we will use throughout the EC . On a closing note we were offered a very appriciated thank you by the German coach on being a good and competitive opponent for the German Team to make their final roster cuts .

J�r�me Legris — 2010-07-12

In the battle of the Flanders, it was Flanders East coming out on top in the Grand Finale of the Belgium Little League Championship 2010.

The final score was 15-6. After the last out, the kids stormed the field to the tune of "We Are The Champions."

It was a fitting finish to a splendid weekend of baseball that saw Little League return to Belgium.

The Merksem Greys proved a great host for this first-ever tournament and the umpiring/scoring crews were fantastic. Not to be forgotten, Belgium Little League Commissioner, John Miller, who single-handedly drove the event to a great success on sheer passion for the game and motivation to spread the Little League dream.

Congratulations to Flanders East as they now move on to the European Championships in Kutno, Poland, July 27 to August 4.

Live from CEB Congress - Brussels to host 2011 Congress

J�r�me Legris — 2010-03-06

The 2010 CEB Congress took place this afternoon in Stuttgart, where the Men's Senior European Championship A-pool, in which Belgium will be competing alongside Europe's elite sides, are to take place later this year.

At the occasion of its 75th anniversary in 2011, Belgium offered to host the CEB Congress next year in Brussels, which met unanimous approval from the 30 member Federations present. Belgium hence looks forward to hosting European Baseball in March 2011.

In parrallel to the Congress, a number of workshops took place under the auspices the various Commissions put in place by CEB a couple of years ago. The dynamic is starting to yield positive results and although the Olympic decision sends baseball worldwide in financial turmoil, confidence is building in a new tomorrow with a number of creative ideas and projects being shared. The Commission work is to keep increasing and Jérôme Legris, KBBSF-FRBBS President, was offered to join the CEB Marketing Commission, which he gladly accepted in view of contributing to CEB's effort in further building both awareness for the game and financial return for CEB and National Federations.

Brussels Sports Association Donates Uniforms, Jackets for Belgian Champions

John Miller — 2010-02-18

Good news! The Brussels Sports Association, which runs expatriate youth baseball in Brussels, has donated a set of "Belgium" uniforms and jackets to the Belgian Federation.

The winners of the 11-12 division will get these unis to wear at the European Championships in Poland. Uniforms are a major expense, usually costing a few hundred euros.

This exciting news means cost should not be an obstacle to any kid participating in his or her regional All-Star team. Room & Board are free in Kutno, so the only remaining expense for the kids is the bus ride.

Little League - Stands for Local Level

Jean Lardinois — 2010-01-18

Dear Belgian ballplayers, ballparents, ballcoaches, ballfans,
As Little League director, I am not organizing any players, teams or coaches in 2010 or 2011 or 2035.

You are.

(What am I doing? Running between 1 and 8 exciting Belgian all-star tournaments -- as many as possible -- in July and then packing the winners off to Poland.)

VBSL and the clubs are still running youth championships.

In every region (Brussels, Wallonia, Flanders East and Flanders West), folks need to pick coaches. Then, in June (but not before, that’s not allowed), coaches need to pick players. Then coaches and parents need to organize practices, so they can try to win the Belgian championships, then the European championships, then the World Series.

Again there are four age categories, valid for baseball and softball. Little League (11-12), Junior League (13-14), Senior League (15-16), Big League (17-18). Age is as of April 30, 2010. Right now, the only age category where I’m sure we’ll have a team representing every region is Little League baseball, the 11-12-year-olds. We’ll have a 4-team tournament in Merksem, July 9 to 11.

What about the other age categories?

That’s up to you! Let’s say Beveren has 8 great Senior League (15-16-year-old) players. Only they in Belgium are motivated to field a team. Well, a coach from Beveren can set up a team and pick a few other players from Flanders West (see list of clubs below). That team – if Brussels, Wallonia and Flanders East don’t organize squads of their own – automatically advances to the European championships! But let’s say Brussels also organizes a Senior League team. Well, then Flanders West and Brussels would play a best-of-3 championship series to determine the Belgian champion. But if you don’t organize these teams, they won’t happen.

The same goes for softball. Coaches at the local level can organize an all-star team with players from their region. That team can then – if there are no opponents in Belgium – automatically advance to the European championships! Or they play against 1 or 2 or 3 other Belgian teams.

That’s why Little League stands for Local Level.

It’s up to you!
Make sense? If not, call (0472-216-796) or email (john.miller@wsj.com) me.

Smoking banned from clubhouses

J�r�me Legris — 2010-01-13

New legislation regarding smoking is being enforced since January 1, 2010.

Please remember that smoking is strictly forbidden in sport clubhouses. In addition, non-smoking signs are to be clearly visible and of course no ashtrays should be available.

Little League - A note concerning player eligibility

Jean Lardinois — 2010-01-06

Any player who plays 60 percent of his or team's regular season schedule is eligible for their region's all-star team. Most regular season youth games in Belgium in 2010 will be organized by the VBSL, but teams and clubs can organize games outside the regular competition. For example, Namur could play Louvain-la-Neuve on a Wednesday afternoon, or could organize a game on a Friday night between its two minimes teams. Those games would count toward the Little League schedule.

Doping - Medication control

J�r�me Legris — 2009-09-09

Following 2 recent cases, the Technical Commission would like to remind all players to make sure they carefully check with their doctor and/or pharmacist to check on any potential conflict between prescribed medication for the purpose of healthcare and practice of competition sport in terms of prohibited substances related to doping.

If you are taking any medications that may include banned substances, please make sure to declare your prescription as soon as possible upon a doping control. If possible, it is best to have a copy of your prescription with you during practices as well as competitions.

The official list of prohibited substances may be consulted on the website of the World Anti-Doping Agency (www.wada-ama.org), which also includes an Athlete's Guide and Q&A on Athlete medication.
