I dont have a prob w/ the safety stuff and think you did good there, especially that kid on the bucket.. but I've had minor coaches before, heck I've had 13 y/o umpires.

I dont know if there are code issues, but I dont think there is an ASA rule or code against it for coaches, and I know it is ok to use minors as umpires.
