My grandson called me to discuss it and he wondered if there were any Little League rules (it's "official" Little League) that would make it mandatory for this kid to be kicked off their team. He thinks the kid should, but his coach doesn't. I told him I thought it probably was a good thing for the kid to stay on the team and perhaps it might help to straighten him out. Anybody care to chime in? Thanks.
Nothing mandatory. The BoD can terminate him by a 2/3 or better vote following a hearing - parents present.
