rules summary
“CLIFFLEBALL” is a version of the classic game of wiffleball, which is similar to traditional baseball. It is played on 45-foot base paths. Plastic balls and bats only.
-
Each team consists of 5 players - a pitcher, 2 infielders, and 2 outfielders. Games are 5 innings or 40 minutes.
-
Events include multiple age divisions with pool play games, followed by tournaments with prizes for winners!
-
Base paths are 45 ft, with the pitcher's mound at 40 ft.
-
Homerun fences are 98 ft.
-
Pre-built strike zones eliminate the need for an umpire!
-
Pitching utilizes "medium pitch speed", meaning that there is a maximum velocity limit. This levels the playing field so everyone can be a pitcher and makes pitches a little more hittable for players at all levels! This is monitored using pitching speed radar equipment. This allows for lots of fun hitting while still giving pitchers the opportunity to get some quality "wiffs".
-
Official Wiffleball brand balls (holes on one side) and bats (the yellow skinny ones) are used and provided if you don't have your own.

ABOUT CLIFFLEBALL
Cliffleball began in 2016 when a wiffle ball tournament was organized at Cliff’s backyard baseball field, which is carved out of a chunk of the family alfalfa field. Each year more and more teams joined the tournament with players ranging in ages from 10 to 50 years old! Soon two age divisions were created and more fields were needed. Nine years later, four wiffle ball fields are needed to host as many as 24 teams and well over 100 players in a two-day tournament in conjunction with Wayne County’s fair! Participants traveled to Wayne County from all parts of Utah! Through conversations with players, it was soon evident that this type of tournament was a novelty in Utah and would be valued and well-attended in all parts of the state!
