The AA division is a semi-competitive, hybrid player/coach pitch division. This division is structured for the development of first time pitchers. Rules are in place to eliminate walks and maintain the flow of the game (i.e. if the player pitcher throws four balls to the batter, then the coach will come in to finish the at bat. The at bat will either end in a strikeout or a ball put in play. There are no walks). Players must attend a preseason skills assessment and will be selected to teams according to their ability. Advanced 8 year-olds have the option to attend assessments to be considered for placement on a AA team. Teams are formed by a common draft. All 9 & 10 year-olds not selected to the AAA division will be placed on a AA team. Any players (younger than 9) not selected for AA in the common draft will be assigned to a Competitive Coach Pitch team.
