LL rule comp
I know I asked this last year, but can't find the response (I think Serge and U M Sam). I know NFHS, NCAA, PONY, ASA; so naturally my granddaughter is playing LL softball. I'd like to know the rule differences which will confuse me while watching her games. If there is a list comparing LL with NFHS or PONY, that would be great.

CecilOne:
What LL age level will your granddaughter play? Please advise. In the meantime, I will check on-line to try finding rule differences between LL and NFHS softball. If I can't find internet info, I will advise you of the differences that I know. Sam

What you know is fine, not asking for you to spend time working on it.
Don't know why search didn't fine your response from last year. She is 10, playing on 10-12.

Basic differences between NFHS and LL (for the LL "Major" Division): Batter: No advance on non-caught 3rd strike / League may adopt to have all players on roster bat (otherwise bat 9-applies in tournament play) / max 33" bat length and of course 2 1/4" diameter / IFF is in effect Runner: Maintain contact with base until pitched ball reaches batter / LBR in effect / "Special Pinch Runner" (no CR) for any player once per inning (applies only if 9 batters in line up) / Runners must slide legally (there is no "must slide" rule). Pitcher: Limited innings per game and week / Same pitching mechanics as NFHS although not too many "illegal" pitches called / No advance of runners if illegal pitch is called / 10-12 year old level might use 11" (instead of 12") softball / Coach may call "Time" to visit (pitcher and catcher only) at pitcher plate / 3 time outs allowed per pitcher with 4th time out resulting in removal of pitcher (this applies to each pitcher). Misc: League may adopt max. runs per team per inning (usually 5) with the last inning unlimited runs / May allow 10 defensive players (usually when having all players bat) / 1 offensive time out per team per inning / 2 adult coaches may occupy coaching boxes / Maximum 1 adult manager and 2 adult coaches / Adult coach or manager must remain in bench area / Player may occupy coaching box / Generally only players warm up pitcher-not coaches / Each player may re-enter once / No DP/Flex During tournament play some regular season rules are slightly adjusted such as no run limit and teams play 9 and bat 9. "Dangling" type throat protector required on catchers mask even if regular mask has an "extended" throat protector (including HSM). Little League web site: www.littleleague.org I will advise if I think of any other differences. Hope this helps. Sam

I'm glad I could help. This (and other umpire forum's) are a good source of info.
