Little League rule-head first slide

1) Can someone tell me what the penalty for Little Jimmy if he does a Pete Rose into 3rd base on a triple?
2) THis seems to indicate that headfirst is ok going back to a base.

I found this quoted elsewhere.

Rule 7.08 (a3 & a4) Sliding
• A runner must slide or attempt to get around a fielder who has the ball and
is waiting to make the tag.
• A runner is not permitted to head first slide while advancing.

I understand that headfirst sliding is prohibited and I will make sure my kid does not do it. I am curious if this is one of those "house rules" thrown in there without any thought and they forgot to put in a sanction.

Thanks,
Joe
