My inquiry led to the coach getting a phone call letting him know that he could not borrow her. He was able to find another player in time. No one even knew there was an issue. Thanks so much!

thanks so much! the official rule is that she cannot play.

I've checked our website. It's lacking that information. I contacted a member of the board, and he said told us to protest after the first pitch. Said it would be unpopular but that's what he recommended doing. One, because she's not part of our league, two, it's a conflict of interest since her grandfather is on the board and inserting a player who (1,) isn't on the list of players to borrow and (2) she's not in our league. He stressed "not in our league."

They are part of the same program as far as I know. But I have never seen a team borrow from softball. When we borrowed players, we got in contact with the player agent and he gave us a list of boys that agreed to play up if needed. That is the list that should be used, and if those boys were unavailable, then they would ask other boys if they would like to play up. She is not on the list of players to be borrowed. She's 10, the list of borrowed players are 7-9 typically.

My son's team is playing in their in house tournament. The team we are facing will be short a player, so they are borrowing a 10 year old girl...who does not play little league baseball. She plays little league softball. We've had to borrow players and have had to borrow from the younger (pee wee) division. There were times when we were not able to borrow players and had to forfeit. One of the members of our board said that we should protest the game after the first pitch. It's playoffs and there is no way she should be playing since she's not a part of our league. Does anyone know if this is in fact an illegal sub or is she legal to play?
