LL minors is the learning division. Learning for coaches, managers, players, umpires, scorekeepers, Division Reps, and parents. Everyone is getting smarter, I like to say (as opposed to most everyone is clueless).
Pick the hill you want to die on, down there. There are times you may be right, but a what cost? You might get the call overturned, but lose a lot of "friends" along the way. Next year, when the president is picking managers, how do you want to be remembered?
When calls don't fall your way, that's a real teachable moment for everyone. And no doubt, there are times to question, and times to protest. Just be very selective.
