Grades 3 to 5: Junior League Softball
At this level ASA\USA Softball Rules are modified. Games are player pitched unless a walk occurs. After four balls the strike count continues, a coach comes in to pitch, and the at-bat is completed with a batted ball or a strikeout. There are limited steals allowed per inning and stealing home is not permitted. These and the additional rule changes all are intended to improve the speed of play and create games that are fair and balanced. There will be two to three games per week in addition to one weekly practice.
Games and practices will likely be held Tuesdays and Thursdays in the evenings and Saturdays and Sundays in the afternoon. Actual schedule may vary depending on field availability.
