That has been addressed by both the rec dept and assignor. We also have a supplemental policy which covers us for any games to which we are scheduled. We do more ball than just ASA, (Dixie Youth BB) and need coverage there also.
I might add, the forfeited games we call are in the youth program only. The thinking is the kids can't be responsible for getting themselves to the games, adults can. Don't want to punish the kids who are there ready to play by not allowing any playing time! Sometimes the "short team" will borrow a player or two from the other team to have enough to cover the outfield. We also had a couple of teams who knew they were going to loose games when playing another team, the coach would tell them just not show up! The team that is left gets another practice then!
