The app also includes information related to Pitch Smart, including guidelines, resources, and pitch counting features. Additional tools and resources are also included, and more features will be added over time.

Considerations for your pitchers:

Little arms can be deceivingly delicate. For our minor league 9/10 rec players, we allow only 50 pitches per game, and in majors 11/12 rec ball we allow a maximum of 75 per game and per day.  13/14yo rec players are limited to 85 pitches per day.  In other situations, we follow the standard high school pitching guidelines provided by MPSSAA. Please keep in mind that for every pitch thrown, a catcher makes an equivalent throw. The following rest procedures must be followed for healthy players
