They even use some different rules modifications.
On edit: For example, they are only allowed 3 walks and 3 advances in a half inning, and after that, you only call strikes and there is no "advancing" to the next base. Also, they don't keep track of team win loss records, there is no playoffs, and for junior high (which the above poster is referring to), you bat your entire lineup, you have 10 players play the field, and if a team bats around in an inning, then you "switch sides".

Wow - our only mods are:
10 players
no U3K
no - sigh - run rule
no extras - games can end in a tie
No official keeping of W-L, but they all do anyways...
And we have been 'advised' that if a coach seems to be taking it too seriously, to 'remind' them.
What section is LI, LIB? I am in Section 9 - Orange/Ulster/Sullivan. Each county has its own umpiring group, and I am in Orange. However, one school in Sullivan is a member of the Orange County IAA. On the other hand, I work volleyball in the fall, and we cover all three counties for that!
