The divisions are the published rule
What the league states outright is its structure: hardball rather than softball, six age divisions at 18+, 35+, 45+, 55+, 62+ and 70+, weekends, fields throughout North County.
It keeps a Penalty page under About and an ejection form for umpires, so there is a written disciplinary code somewhere.
No bat rule, roster limit, game length, courtesy runner or pitching restriction appears publicly -- and a league with a 70-and-over division certainly has accommodations written down for it.
A rulebook reaches players when it sits beside the fixture. A High Cheese league page keeps each division's rules next to its own schedule, at the league's own address.
