Throwing The Bat

Usually a youth league issue, sometimes into high school; I believe Little League is the only rule set that specifically calls a batter out for throwing the bat. I don't work Little League, mostly...

Thanks guys, that is the way I was leaning as well (sending the runner back to 1st). Once again, NFHS has to be different about things!

And you're right, you hope the coach would be smart enough...

Thanks for the info. Strangely the league doesn't have any posted rules except for who can be a member of a team and things like that. It just says they follow NFHS rules.

But as you point out...

Priceless!

Correct, I did not work the Varsity contest - now that would have been interesting! Could I have T'd him during the pre-game V coaches meeting for his actions at the JV game then? :D

Over The Backboard

Had this in a youth league game yesterday and got me thinking, NFHS rules apply:

A1 drives toward the side of his basket a bit out of control and ends up going too far and past the backboard. As...

Many good suggestions; I will toss in one of my own. On subs and CR, I always note when this occurred as in T4 or B6 (top of the 4th or bottom of the 6th).

I get what you are saying and true, judgement would come into it. In this case, I saw it as an offensive player pushing off to create space - a normal but not intentional foul. But I wanted to make...
