Stadiums And Stadium Models
.
Summary Team stadiums can be customized and impact the on-field performance of your team (and your opponents!), so choose wisely.

In CSFBL, each team has a stadium where they play their home games. To view a team's stadium, go to the team's Front Office page.

The Stadium Model

Every stadium is modeled based on wall distance and height, playing surface, and foul territory size.

  • The distance down the lines and to center is now measured in feet (approx. 1/3 meter).
  • Distance down the line ranges from 300' to 360' (average is 330').
  • Distance to deep center field ranges from 380' to 440' (average is 410').
  • The height of your stadium walls can be set separately in LF, CF, and RF. Each wall can range in height from 3' to 40' (average is 8').
  • There are five foul territory options: tiny, small, average, medium, and high.
  • Playing surface can be grass or turf.
  • New teams are created with default (average-sized) stadiums.

Each of these dimensions will impact the game. Some examples:

  • The larger the stadium (wall distance and height), the fewer the home runs.
  • The larger the foul territory, the greater likelihood of foul ball outs.
  • Artificial playing surfaces (i.e. turf) don't slow down ground balls as much as natural surfaces (grass), allowing more ground balls to sneak past infielders.

Editing Stadiums

You can edit stadiums for teams you own, within certain restrictions.

  • Inactive teams (teams that are not in a league) can edit their stadiums at any time.
  • Active teams (teams that are in a league) can only edit their stadiums during the pre-season (i.e. before the first game of the season).
  • Certain leagues may not allow stadium changes. If your league does not allow stadium changes, you will see a note on your team's Front Office page.
