Of course, the number one consideration is always safety. But if the other team's manager is a first-class AH, and refuses to let his equipment be used by the other team, then what? I can't see where an umpire could force equipment sharing. I would be inclined to use 4-2-3 as a guide in determining if the game should be called or suspended.
Upon further review, the NFHS rules seem to put these kinds of situations into each state association's purview.

Let's end this -
It is NOT the duty of the opposing manager to lend his equipment out. If he doesn't want to that's fine.
It IS the duty of the umpire to ensure safety at all youth levels.
Missing safety equipment - no game! Not a forfet - just NO GAME.
Damn TWP's!
