Item #27 - Pitching
Item #27 proposes that pitching regulations of Mens and Women/JO Olympic
be unified in Rule 6-3. (Add Women/JO to H & L and eliminate sub-sections I & K)
a)This obviously would eliminate the "leaping" scenario of Women/JO Olympic
as long as the pivot foot toe is pointed downward when both feet are airborne.
(possibly eliminate some of the chirping from coaches?)
b) If Women/JO are added to sub-section H, this would eliminate the section
which indicates that the step must be within the 24-inch length of the pitching plate. (is this good? bad? no big deal?)
Just curious as to some opinions on this proposal.
