<big><u>'''NOTES'''</u></big>
# The requirements incorporate the unique aspects of Pathfinder Baseball while promoting physical activity, sportsmanship, safety, and spiritual growth.
# Because the instructor needs to understand the Pathfinder Baseball game before running this honour, we strongly recommend reading Appendix A: Pathfinder Baseball - Field, Rules & Score Sheet in advance.
# To complete the Pathfinder Baseball Honour, the pathfinders need to play Pathfinder Baseball with their Pathfinder Club peers in an outdoor field. This means they can’t achieve this Honour alone as Pathfinder Baseball is a team-based sport.
# If your Club doesn’t have enough pathfinders to play this game (minimum 10 and no more than 15 per team), we recommend inviting another Club or Clubs to join in the Honour. Your Club staff can also participate, but in a gentle manner to prevent injuring the pathfinders and always without compromising the character values of Pathfinder Baseball.
