2025 Macomb Little League 
Coach Pitch League Rules

1. This is an instructional league meant to introduce kids to the game of baseball.
2. No Score will be kept
3. Batting
   1. All players that are present at the game will bat each half inning. The order should be switched up each inning so that the same people are not always batting first or last.
   2. Outs will be kept from the start of the game to encourage real play. Each team will still bat through the order. The half inning will not switch after 3 outs, it will switch when the team has gone through the order.
4. Base Running
   1. Each time the ball is put in play the runners will advance at their own risk. There will be NO stealing or lead offs.
   2. On overthrows, runners will be allowed to advance one base.
5. Each batter will receive five pitches from a coach. If the batter misses those five pitches a tee will be inserted for the player to use.  If a player fouls off the third pitch, he or she may be given an extra pitch. If the coach makes a bad pitch the batter may also be given an extra pitch at the coach’s discretion.
6. The coach may throw overhand or underhand at any distance and may also be on a knee to throw.
7. Games will be 60 minutes or until each team has batted through at least 3 times, whichever comes first.
