Start of Game/During Game:
The Director of the Day will introduce the players, their positions, and their buddies. The Director of the Day will then ask everyone to stand for the singing of the National Anthem (lead by the Home team). You should have the CD player cued and ready to go at this time. The announcer should hold the bullhorn up to the CD player while you are holding it.
After the National Anthem, the Home team should take the field. The Director of the Day will then introduce the person throwing out the first pitch to the Home team catcher. They will then yell, “Play ball!” and the game is underway! The Director of the Day & coaches will have control of the game from here and you can take a breather and enjoy the game!
