The rules that say how many coaches are allowed and kids playing out of thier boundraies, Coaches outside the dugouts on buckets,warming up pitchers.This was allowed to go on as long as you were friends with the person in charge.Our main concern is the safty of our kids.

The rules in our district are strictly enforced. Donnie Rawlins is strict when it comes to the safety of our children and enforcement of the rules. I think you will be happy with the way things are ran. Welcome to the area!

how would your kids get hurt with a coach warming up a kid sitting on a bucket ?
even though this is a rule, i dont understand it and it saves time , alot in between innings, but rules are rules

I agree with the previous post. My daughter is a pitcher and has a certian routine that she goes through. If I know she is pitching then we have to be at the field early to warm up so we don't get in trouble. Now trust me, some leagues you go to the coaches/parents warm them up and others do not. Even in tournament play, we just went to another open field and warmed up. I do not agree that this is a safety hazard for anyone.

District 11 covers Scioto and Lawrence counties in se Ohio. If you will send me a private message, I will try to put you in touch with someone from your local league boundary.

I was at the enterleague meeting last night and listened to what was said about the way District 11 will hold each coach accountable for their actions at the games.The DA seem to get his point across that if there is any trouble at any field that they would deal with it not the local leagues.Can the district do this regaurdless of what the local league Boards have to say?

District DA is over interleague. I was told that the DA could recommend that a manager/coach be punished but the local league board would have to do that. Now, saying that, the DA has the right not to let you interleague and so if you choose to let the coach continue the DA can just cancel the rest of your games for that year and not let you interleague the next. The local board still has control of their managers/coaches/and players. Again, it's little league and each manager/coach/parent and kids should be held accountable for their actions. Remember, though, there is two sides to every story!!!
