She did say that she will only do this for 14u's and lower, but my argument is that even 10us have a coach in the dugout to do that job.
Thanks.

It's not. Your partner is inventing things. It's not in the book. And most real umpires will not do it. To me, it's one of the signs that my partner doesn't go to clinics.
In another thread, I detailed where one of our VERY experienced guys did this at a high school game and got his @$$ handed to him by the coach.
Don't. Do. It.
