The guidelines can be found on the baseball and coaches corner links for the benefit of all coaches and parents. It is up to all of us to act in the best interest of our young athletes and protect the arms of young pitchers.

Thank you!

PITCH COUNT EFFECTIVE 2009!
 
Miami Lakes Optimist has adopted the Little League Pitch Count Regulation VI - Pitchers
 
League Age: 
 (PONY/COLT)                13 - 16      95 Pitches per day
 (BRONCO)                     11 - 12      85 Pitches per day
 (MUSTANG)                   10 & under    75 Pitches per day
 
The Manager will notify the Home Team Scorekeeper after each inning to report how many pitches were pitched by a pitcher for each inning pitched. 

The Home Team Scorekeeper will record on the GAME SHEET  the number of pitches pitched by a pitcher in the appropriate inning of the Pitcher Stats section.

When a pitcher is within 5 pitches of the pitch count the scorekeeper notifies the umpire!  When a pitcher has reached the maximum he may complete pitching to the batter at bat!
 
 
Please see the complete rules as posted in this website
