​

Games​

• Players receive 6 pitches and if no contact/hit, the tee is brought out for them to get on base.

• Coaches will make a point to teach the positions on the field so players become familiar with the names and locations of which they should play.

• Runners advance one base at a time unless a ball is hit into the outfield grass.  Runners may run 2 bases if that happens.

• Fielding team throws to first base on batted balls that stay in the infield.  Throw to the lead base for batted balls that go to the outfield.
