Tips to Help You Mark the Perfect Chalk Lines

 

Chalking out a regulation-sized field takes time. However, doing it correctly will reward you with a perfect finish. We have laid out the 5 steps to help you do this the right way.

 

  • Drag or rake first: Smooth out lumps and fill in holes around the plates and along the base path with the help of a nail drag or rake. This will help ensure the field is safe to play on.

 

  • Remove old lines: Simply scrape with a shovel to remove previously marked lines. This will prevent build up or unevenness when fresh chalk is applied.

 

  • Line up the string: Use a string to mark out your lines. Attach it to a stake at the back edge of home plate and run it past the right edge of first base all the way to the foul pole in right field. Repeat this step for the third base side but run the string past the left edge of third base. Make sure the string is tight and follow with a chalk line that is at least two inches wide. 

 

  • Use a template for the batter boxes: This is the easiest way to do it. Regulation sizes vary (4’ x 6’, 3’ x 6’, 3’ x 7’) based on whether it is baseball or softball, and the age group that is going to use the field. The size for Little League is 3’x6′ and is located 6” from the plate. Alternatively, you can get help to measure and mark out the batter box areas if you do not have a template.

 

  • Rake periodically: To maintain the lines, rake on either side to remove debris and smooth uneven areas.
