12725431, I played in the wrong little league too

Not in the wrong district, but in the wrong zone. My league was right over the fence from my elementary school and used to pass out fliers, so when it was time to sign up, that's where we signed up. Once I started making all-star teams we had to sign a waiver that said we USED to live in that zone when we signed up (which was a lie). Otherwise I wouldn't have gotten to play.

Also, once I was in babe ruth we had a kid on our all-star team who was in the wrong zone. He didn't play an inning, but when we won the district tournament the other league complained and we had to forfeit.

From what I remember, whichever team won the district tournament had the option of picking up players from other teams that were in the same district. The zones stopped mattering and as long as you lived in the district, you were good.
