minor A (7 year old) softball rule
Here is the deal. We have played a whole season and now are down to our season finale. The other team has stacked all their girls infield the entire season (9 girls) and not assigned correct positions. My team has played the whole season with our girls in the correct positions. Is there a rule of how many girls can play infield or are they required to play the correct positions?
This is 7 year old Minor A girls. Any info would help. Game is 6 days away |
LL doesn't post their rules on line, so there may be some odd rule in the 7-year old class that applies here...
But generally, no, there are no rules about where players play on the field, with the exception of pitcher and catcher, and the fact that players must be positioned in fair territory. |
I was hoping for some sort of rule. It doesn't seem fair to build a wall of 9 girls to stop the ball. Thanks anyway

Not sure what might not be fair... both teams play under the same set of rules. That said, I wouldn't take my statement to the bank just yet. There are some LL gurus that know more than I about the lower level rules (which may differ from the norm).

Otherwise, you're outta luck. If you're talking Little League, rule 4.03 states that fielders other than the pitcher and catcher may be stationed anywhere in fair territory, as Mike mentioned. |
