Sounds like this league needs to adopt the policy we have for the city leagues here in Omaha (and it's starting to gain popularity in the area) which is ANY assault on an umpire leads to lifetime ban from playing not only in the city leagues, but a report to ASA so the ban extends to any ASA-sanctioned event, esstentially putting the fool out of the sport because the USSSA and other alphabet soupers will get wind of it, and the fool would be pretty much black-balled. In the seven years since a new group took over operating the city leagues in Omaha, noone has been banned yet that I know of, because we do take this zero tolerance seriously. If you're interested, check out the "League Playing Rules" link on Welcome to Metro Omaha Softball.
