Welcome to the home of the PIAA Brandywine Chapter Baseball Officials!
2019 Meeting Schedule:
Here is the Chapter meeting schedule for 2019. All meetings start at 7:00pm and will be held in the usual rooms. The final Chapter meeting will be the annual picnic at Coatesville HS on May 6.
Please note that all PIAA members are required to attend a Rules Interpretation meeting and 6 Chapter meetings. The Rules Interpretation meeting does NOT count toward the 6 meeting requirement. Also, you cannot get credit for attending more than 3 Chapter meetings prior to the first regular season play date, which is March 22rd. Finally, if you attend a meeting at another Chapter, make sure you sign-in and note your home Chapter so you will be marked present in the PIAA database by that Chapter secretary.
