Little League Rule Changes for 2010

• When a 12-year-old player is found to be ineligible, that player and/or his/her team are subject to removal from the International Tournament by action of the Tournament Committee.
• A resumed game or contest decided by forfeit does not constitute a "game" for the purpose of this regulation, unless one completed inning was played before the game ended or the game was forfeited.
•  Alcohol is prohibited at the game site.

PLAYING RULES:

• Any bat that has been altered must be removed from play.
• Standardized the limits on the size of fielders' gloves.
•  A balk or illegal pitch, whether or not a pitch is actually delivered to a batter, counts as a pitch in determining the pitch count for that pitcher. (Baseball only.)
• Defensive substitutions must be made while the team is on defense, and offensive substitutions must be made at the time the offensive player has her/his turn at bat or is on base.
• The five-run rule may be suspended in the last half inning for either team, by option of the local league.
• Adults and Minors in Positions of Authority: Changes were made making it clear that Minors may serve as coach or umpire under specific and limited circumstances as noted in each rule.
