Thanks in advance.
DaveASA/FED,
The rules are close enough to afford minimal confusion.
Possible difference may include:
  • Uniform
  • Equipment
  • Pitcher footwork
  • Base running

    No problem at all.

  • Actually, all the LL umpires I've encountered needed retraining. However, most adapt with minimal problems, they just need to get the baseball(OBR) out of their head.

    I agree, Mike.
    Retraining from the big diamond to the small diamond can certainly add some questions.
    LL Softball umpires don't all have those OBR problems.
