Do most 8u leagues pitch from 30' or 35'?
I have a local league that allows 8u players to pitch the second half of the season. It's just to let the girls try it out and see if they like it so they'll get into lessons and be ready by 10u.
I gave a clinic there last year to give them the basics before they started and will give another one this year.
I had one 7yr old sign up last fall and she is most efficient around 30'. --She is very tiny.
I asked a board member about the distance and he said it's always been 35', they had never even thought about it being different.
What's the consensus?
