Florida USSSA 8 & Under Coach Pitch Playing Rules
NOTE: These differ from the Official USSSA Rule Book

1) The game will be played for 5 innings or an 1 hour 15 minute time limit whichever comes first.
2) There will be no infield fly rule or dropped third strike in the 8 & Under division.
3) The run rule will be 17 runs after 3 innings and 9 runs after 4 innings.
4) The coach in the outfield cannot instruct his players after the ball has been pitched.
5) The pitching coach cannot instruct players on the field. The base coaches are allowed to coach the base runners only.
6) There will be allowed a coach behind the catcher to assist with passed balls but will not be allowed to coach from that position.
7) To stop runners from advancing the ball must be in front of the lead runner or in possession of the pitcher player inside of the pitching circle before time can be called. If the runner is more than half way to the next base when time is called the runner will be awarded the next base.
8) Teams can bat a maximum of 11 batters or 3 outs per inning whichever comes first. If the 11th batter comes up the offensive must let the umpire know it is the 11th batter.
9) A maximum of 8 runs can be scored each inning for each team.
10) The pitching coach must pitch from the pitching plate. Once the coach toes the pitching plate the ball is in play and the look back rule is in effect.
11) Runners cannot leave the base in this division before the ball crosses the plate. If the runner leaves the base early they shall be called out.
12) If the pitching coach is unintentionally hit with a batted ball it is a immediate dead ball and a no pitch. If the pitching coach intentionally makes contact with the ball or in the umpires judgment interferes with a defensive play the ball is dead and the batter is out. The coach will be given a warning and a second infraction will result in the coach being ejected.
13) For all other 8 & under playing rules please refer to the USSSA rule book.
