That is right there is no comparison.  Even if the kids played on a team in JRW Little League during the little league season but were from outside the league boundries they were ineligble to play for JRW Little league, and ineligible to play on its All Star team.  But beyond that if a player is selected for an all star team the player / parent has to provide documentation that they live within the boundries before the season started.  Based on what I have read JRW little league cheated by expanding the leagues boundries without permission of the other leagues in the district making players on the All Star team ineligible to play for the team.

And thank you Coach Janes for standing up for "Courage, Character and Loyalty".  We are invloved in little league and have sons that play.  Little League exists by it's rules, rules on bats, divisions of play and age and yes borders.  It is designed to teach young kids Courage, Character and Loyalty through the game of basball and designed to let every kid that signs up for a league they are from to develop and play this great game, and develop the skills necessary to hopefully get selected to the All Star travel team and dream of going to Wiliamsport.  The actions of JRW little league denied other kids and other teams of reaching that goal and experiencing that dream and for that should be and were punished.
