I agree on #1---worked a national within the last 3 years and UIC TOLD us not to call illegal pitches until Saturday!

I agree on #2---some of the soup can't spell IP.

I agree on #3, for personal reasons. When I UIC state tournaments, it depends on the age level and division on how close we call the rule. UIC'd 10U a few weeks ago, and I only had them call IP in the "A" division. In the "B" division, we worked with coaches on the pitching rule...I can't fault a girl (and I'm opening myself up for attacks here) for having a coach that knows nothing about pitching.
When I UIC 16U, we call it close, especially at the "A" level. They know by now how to pitch, they are obviously doing something on purpose. (IMHO)
