Mark - I would ask, in your area --- is this a late-season tourney, or a pre-season one (could be either given the timing). IOW, were these Spring teams finishing up, or Fall teams just getting going?
At 10U, especially at the beginning of the season, everyone gives a ton of leeway on IP's - you have to. Late in the season, they should have stuff like that ironed out by now. (And the IP your girl was doing sounds like a DISadvantage to her - I bet she loses some speed pitching like that).
The only other thing I'd add is that IMHO, the very best time to call an IP like the one you saw (again, assuming this is not early in the season as mentioned above) is the first pitch of the game. No one on, just a ball for a penalty.
