My 9 yr old is required by our league to attend 1 of 2 tryouts in order to be eligable when the coaches draft their teams. My son sprained his ankle and is not permitted to participate in sports for 3 weeks...which means he'll miss both tryouts.
The league president said that would be OK as long as I provided them with a doctors excuse...which I did. Now he's telling me that I have to get another doctors letter clearing him to play.
I don't want to have to pay for another office visit when excuse is dated and clearly says "no sports for 2-3 weeks". To me, the doctors restriction is removed once the required time has passed.
Does anyone know the official Little League rule regarding this? Thanks...Rob

There is no official rule regarding this from Little League, it is up to the local league. It would seem to me if the note cleared him in 2-3 weeks, that should be fine... But, if they want another note just call the Dr office - they shouldn't charge you for that.

I don't know about the official little league rules but you will not have to pay for another office visit. Just call the doctor's office and ask them to write a letter clearing him to play. Doctors do that kind of thing all the time.
