Note - there is a difference between a courtesy runner for an injured player (which, if in effect, is a local rule, not an ASA rule). If you are outlawing players substituted for due to injury, this is likely what you're referring to, and it's not an ASA rule.

However, ASA rules allow courtesy runners for pitchers and catchers as a normal matter. Has nothing to do with injury (at least not directly - the rule may have come about due to fear of injury to those critical positions) of the particular player. If your courtesy rule contradicts this ASA rule, you might want to get your local league to clarify in the case that the catcher or pitcher is injured.
