Am I doing the right thing here???
Well, for starters, if you're talking about games you did in the last month, it should be called Fall Ball. Summer ends in most states on September 21. If you call it summer, you confuse the rest of us.

Other than that, I'd ask whoever is making the assignments what they want. Do what is expected. And don't let blue language or rough play go, especially when they are accompanied by anger or frustration.
