Do you have a definition of an "illegal slide?"

If NFHS game, then yes, we do.

NFHS: 2-52 Art 2. A slide is illegal if:
the runner uses a rolling or cross-body slide into the fielder;
the runner’s raised leg is higher than the fielder’s knee when the fielder is in a standing position;
the runner goes beyond the base and make contact with or alters the play of the fielder;
the runner slashes or kicks the fielder with either leg; or
the runner tries to injure the fielder.

What's the penalty for that?

8.6.13: the runner is out if the runner does not legally slide and causes illegal contact and/or alters the actions of the fielder in the immediate act of making a play on her. Runners are never required to slide but, if the runner elects to slide, the slide shall be legal.

But - if ASA, probably nothing.
