Shit I could probably throw a 40mph ball when I was 9 too, back then even we had rules when playing these types of games to not throw the ball too fast/as fast as you possibly can. Don't ask why, I always found it easier to hit a fast ball than a slow one.

He has already hit his prime...no Major League for him.  It kinda sucks, but i can see both sides of the argument.

Damn right, I'd get him some lessons or something. Keep it up and he could earn a full ride for college.

But, as long as you're talking about the kid:

He was so good, he was scaring other kids who had probably never held a bat before...

Does nobody else understand the league?

The league is three years old. The batters are 9 years old. They have to face fastballs up to 40mph. This is probably the first season for a lot of them, so they are probably scared as shit (which is why they forfeight). The league doesn't want that, so they try to "ban" him. Imo, they should try to send him off to a league with a higher level, where he can get better faster, play with people as good as him, etc.

QFT.  Move the kid up a league, let him get a better learning curve, and throwing curve, lol.  Don't ban him, just move him up.  lol, send him to triple a.

I can kinda see why, it's no fun for the other team, rather than no fun for one kid.

Not that that makes thier actions o.k.  but I can see where they are coming from.

Maybe just let the kid play with a little bit older age group.  It will be more of a challenge, and will keep his game sharper.  Rather than slacking off on a bunch of noobs.

Packing up and leaving the game is REALLY immature.  The Coach of that team is a fucking bitch.   Way to make the little kid feel bad.   "you are so good you ruined the game!"

What fistful of assholes.
