Division Guidelines

Game Format

  • Games will be 3 innings
  • Baseballs should be Level 1 Flexiball (LC-1)
  • In each half inning, the batting team will bat once through the entire order.  The batting order can change each inning
  • Each at bat will result in the batter reaching first base, and every base runner advancing one base
  • The last hitter each inning will hit a “home run”
  • Coaches can pitch underhand to give batters the chance to hit a pitched ball.  After 4-5 swings and misses, the tee should be used to help move the game along
  • When batting, one coach should be on the bench to remind the players who is batting and who is on deck, as well as ensure the safety of the players
  • Players on the bench while their team is hitting should wear helmets, just in case a foul ball is hit in their direction
  • Only the batter and on deck player should be holding a bat
  • When fielding, coaches should spread players out in the field and change their positions every inning. 
  • No player should play catcher
  • A coach should “play” catcher, mainly to help collect baseballs and help instruct hitters where to stand and how to swing.
  • Coaches are allowed in the field to help instruct the fielding team during the game.
