Structure | U11 is played like fastpitch with some modifications. There is 3 outs and 4 balls, after 4 balls instead of the batter taking a walk to first base she will have a coach soft toss balls equal to the remaining strikes in the count from foul territory. This keeps the ball active and in play while the girls are learning how to pitch. This is a fun opportunity for girls to learn how to throw, catch, bat, make plays and play different positions. Rules can be found on the Tiger Hills Softball website. |
