Can they CR for F5 in JO championship play next year?

If F5 is a certified ADA player, yes. The ADA rule allowing a disabled player to play just offense or defense has been expanded to allow one playing offense to have a courtesy runner.

For the standard league or tournament game you will call, there has been no change in the JO courtesy runner rule. Only if a team presents a lineup with an ADA certified player do you need to change anything.

For all adult fastpitch, the same courtesy runners as JO. For Masters and Senior slowpitch, the same rule they have had.
