It's administrative. But it's also a question about the eligibility of the player to participate in a game.
Yes - a good LL umpire should know the all rules.
The umpires won't have the records - but in this case there are no records involved. FYI, in the tournament the team manager carries the records and the TD at the site (no one else) can examine them if there's an issue.
