Another point from a different discussion board where the ASA/FED Look Back Rule was being compared to the Little League rule:

Little League does not seem to have the same criteria as ASA/FED regarding WHEN the LBR goes into effect. For instance, one requirement of the ASA/FED rule is that the LBR is not in effect until the batter-runner touches first base.

I don't see that stipulation in the LL rule. In other words, their LBR goes into effect when the pitcher has the ball in the circle, REGARDLESS of whether the B/R has yet touched first base.

Not doing any LL games in my area, so I'll let any LL umpires comment as to the accuracy of this satement.
