Sorry to state the reg but, it looks to me that the General Sports Regulation allows for Instructional Programs (definition is not precise)....I think the key words is TRAINING when it comes to the General Sports Regulation 4.3...Also Softball specific regulation 4.1 leaves out the word TRAINING.....
I believe Instructional opportunties are ok but, when you are doing it as a team in the same sport in that season, then you are in trouble.....
