This was my second game doing 10U and I ran into a coach that did not feel like playing by the rules and had an issue with it. He just so happened to be friends with an equal of a jerk who was on the board. In regards to deciding if a child is mature enough or not, not to get all academia on here, but the psychology degree with an emphasis in child development on my wall gives me the ability to do so. You would be surprised what children are capable of, even at the age of 10.

We can compare our education, degrees and practices in psychology at
a later date. My comment was that this is not the responsibility of the umpire. And it is not, regardless of how you feel about your personal abilities. Read a rule book. Umpire responsibilities are contained therein.

Yes, you are whining. You continue to refuse to accept reality, which is they have given themselves the right to do what they do. You have no authority in that league to deny them that. If you cannot accept how they run their league, don't work it.

If you truly have a background in psychology you must know it is time to let go and get on with your life. Hanging on is not positive and will contribute nothing to your success as an umpire or well being as a human being.
