    No parnets in any dugouts,at all levels! No parnets coaching any level at all.

    No outside family and friends at the High school level.

    Thats an unrealistic wish!

    Just a wish!:tiny:

    Sit

    How about this...All the dads must sit on the stands in center field. The stands will be 25' feet back from the fence. The fence is 8 ft high with a green color guard........

    The coach of each team gets to select a CPA (Can't Pitch Around) Player. If you walk the CPA at any point during the game the CPA would be awarded 3 bases!

    Umpires

    We need well trained competent umpires. I know there are some really good ones out there but there is no excuse for the ones who are clueless, and there are quite a few who are clueless and then there are some who want all attention on them.

    Number 1 by far for me would be to totally do away with dead periods.
    Number 2 would be to up the limit on number of game allowed in a season

    If i had the power to change...

    ...i would allow nope, mandate college coaches to attend or send a scout to the more rural areas, smaller schools so the kids who do not have the socioeconomic means to play travel ball could at least be seen.

    ... i would mandate MLB teams to have a womens pro team as well and have the softball game prior to each baseball game. spread the wealth.

    ...each umpire would have have to have attend fp school for umpires in order to be certified before calling a game.

    ...in high school, the umpires would be responsible for bringing a set of bats for both teams to use.

    ...in order to promote and develop pitching, allow high school coaches to work with their kids to develop the pitching in or out of season. i guess this thought goes hand in hand with no dead periods. fb softball should always be a pitchers game.

    ...
