Could some of you help me to find a rule about allowing 10 & under to advance home on a overthrow from the catcher to an infielder(not Pitcher)trying to catch them stealing. Camfast Tournaments, I hear uses this rule under the NFHS rule book but I cannot seem to find this rule book. The association I am with is trying to experiment to make the game a bit faster paced. What I need is the wording for it to make it official for the association.
My EXAMPLE: R1 on second and F1 pitches ball, R1 attempts to steal 3B. F2 catches ball and throws over the head of F5 thus allowing R1 the chance to run home. Now trying to word it and make it, make sense for everyone. |

NFHS does not have any rules governing 10under. Their rules are strictly softball rules without age designation. You should consider other rules bodies to get age different rules.

You've been given the rule citation: ASA 8-4-H. The rule is fairly lengthy, so rather than typing it in, I'd suggest you get a copy of last year's rule book (the rule was not changed) - which any travel coach should have kicking around in the bottom of his equipment bag, probably unread .
In the scenario you posted, as Mike said, the runner would be returned to 3B assuming the ball did not go out of play on the overthrow. If the ball went out of play, the runner would be awarded home. Under ASA's 10U rules, the runner can score only on: 1) a batted ball 2) a base on balls or hit batter with the bases full 3) on an awarded base when the ball goes out of play or illegal pitch.
