Although the league tries to limit it to two, with brothers and sponsors kids, the possibility of 3 exists.

What’s the general consensus on how to handle this?

1) Allow three if they are not top rounders. Perhaps three 9-10 year old all stars can be allowed since they are not as strong as three 12 year old all stars.

2) Allow three all stars and the have that team possibly forfeit higher round picks. This approach is sometimes used in GBA. If a team is loaded with three first round coaches kids, perhaps they forfeit their 4th, 5th, and 6th round picks.

3) Stick to 2 all stars, count brothers as two.

I think it’s a good idea. Coaches can set the rotating order in the pre-season and set-up a strong order for key games and the playoffs.

 There is still strategy involved (which satisfies us coaches) and yet every player gets the thrill and confidence building experience of batting leadoff.
