They oughtta just let the 10-U play like everyone else. I think I understand the reasoning for the way it is. I believe the intent was to let the girls try to make a play with no possible bad outcome for the defense. With a "station to station" set of rules, an overthrow can't cost someone a game, so the coach lets the catchers try to throw the girl out or pick them off base.

I think.

That's true Rick. Most of the cases in 10U the outs
happen because the "coach"does not understand the rules.
Usually in 10U when the runner achieves the next base be-
yond the one they are entitled to, they just stand there.
Which is fine, cause after the play is over, blue is gonna
send her back to the one base she was legally entitled.
Coach see'em there decides something wrong and puts them on
the move and that is normally when the outs occur.
