PONY will change
From PONY:
We have announced the following rule change for the 18 & Under program. We will now be pitching at 43' in 2007. This change was made after months of consideration and input. This change will align our program to the college pitching distance and other national softball programs.

We will allow our PONY tournament hosts to host 40' and/or 43' tournaments this season. The idea is to help transition the entire East Zone and Canada with the change. Please note that the 2007 PONY Nationals will be pitching at 43' in the 18 & Under age group.
