Question

I know in little league (at least in our local league) the on deck batter is directed to go to across the diamond and warm-up on the side of the diamond away from his team. I don't know why...

In High School games I've had a few coaches get upset about a batter warming up on their side of the field while the pitcher is taking his pre-inning pitches or when a new pitcher enters the game to warm-up. In this case they want the batter to stay on his own side of the diamond - the opposite of the Little League rule.

Where do I find direction in NFHS/FED rules that tells me where a batter is allowed to take his warm-up swings?

And what's the purpose? Are the coaches trying to create a rule that is not there?

Help... thanks, Tony
