At 12U the caoches really start working on aggressive base running.... the problem is if you say look back to a 12U player (say in an off field conversation) they will respond with a blank stare. I've only called it once and I watch pretty closely. the main problem I've found with look back is how often the pitcher will fake a throw or make some play to invalidate the look back rule - instead of getting their buts in the pitching circle and staying there without making a play. The runners do it because it works at this level. Keep calling it when you see it.. but watch that pitcher close... I cant count the number of times the pitcher as charged the base or faked a throw or even actually threw it, giving up the base or even a run in the process.
