More after supper. I'm starved.
I have never heard this one before, is this a national thing or just local.
I know for a fact that in our local LL, for which I volunteered as long as I could, there have been and are players who play ASA, NSA, ISA and other codes.

Could you enlighten me on where this came from?

That's got to be a local thing. A local team won the LL world series for high school aged players (I have no idea what the name of that age group is in LL terms). The same team played in several ASA tournaments during their LL season.

They can't play in non-LL games once they start LL tournament play until they are eliminated from the tournament. It is a national rule. It does not apply to the regular season. So I've been told. I'm about as far from an expert in LL code as there is.

According to the 2007 Rule Book that's not totally accurate. It's accurate up to major level. They cannot play in non-LL games as your described (mostly). Junior, Senior and Big Leagues CAN participate providing the coach doesn't get pi$$ed about a player missing practices or games. I'm not an expert either but am fairly well-versed . . .
