Anytime a play is coming from foul territory, the 3'/1m lane is extended that distance into fair territory and the players involved may use either base.

ISF have no such rule as yet, hence Merle's comment.

Softball New Zealand are proposing to submit a rule amendment to address this issue, at congress this year.
