Baseball Single A (Coach Pitch Minors)
Minor League Baseball programs for boys and girls may be operated within each division for younger players with less experience. The minor league may be players ages 5-11. The younger Minor League Players will start out in Coach Pitch once they complete a season of Tee Ball.
Emphasis is placed once again on strong fundamentals for all players in this division. Positional play and introductory strategy is introduced to expand a players understanding of the game.
Rosters may be composed of between 12 and 20 players, but most leagues have rosters in the 12-15 range. The diamond used is a 60-foot diamond and the pitching distance is 46 feet.
Parents are strongly encouraged to become involved in this level of Little League. After completing a Little League volunteer application and passing a required national background check, parents may become involved in practices, and be eligible as coaches, managers, umpires, local league board members and other volunteer positions within the league.
