Format
Players will learn to play baseball on a small field focusing on learning positions, fielding, throwing and hitting both coach pitching and kid pitching. Kid pitching will begin the mid-way thru the season and will be alternated with innings of all coach pitching.  Pitchers will be limited to one inning per game and a maximum of 5 pitches per batter and 5 batters per inning (total maximum of 25 pitches per game).  There are no strikes or walks with coaches taking over after 5 pitches.  All players should learn the standard nine positions defensively. Games are used for instructional purposes and play may be stopped from time to time to provide coaching to players on either team. Two Managers and Coaches will be on the field of play. Runs and game scores are not counted and there are no standings or end of season playoffs.
