I strongly suspect that the people who designed the rules for those kids did not grow up playing baseball.

The "Mustang" division, 9-10's. I work this for 5 different city leagues. 3 of them allow lead off and stealing, balks are enforced( I tell coaches that "intent to decieve shall govern" is the way they will be called)The other 2 do it like LL, runners can't leave till ball reaches catcher, if they do, like SB, they are out! Better than those 2 pages of "if arunner leaves early...." that LL has. PONY allows either option for regular league play, come all-star tourneys, regular baseball. Guess which teams are having problems then......
