    7U or 8U???

    Why are there even 7U or 8U tournaments or teams? Shouldn't they just be doing fun scrimmages or league games? What happened to Little League??

    19 years...never been thrown out so

    how about if an umpire makes a mistake and you are upset, do you berate a player for making a error or missing a sign or throwing to wrong base or missing a cutoff? Bet you wouldnt handle it the same way

    Thoughts please not judgements

    Hypthetical.....No a good fielding HS team. They can hit. Also not used to rules and consequences like you miss a game and you dont play next game and you miss a practicr and you dont play. Coach has been somewhat lenient as they get used to new rules and consequences. Here is what happened...
