Why is there a requirement of one year at the Farm level in order to play Minor’s level baseball?
Over the last several years, we observed and received feedback from managers and coaches that the majority of 9 year olds coming out of Coach Pitch are taking too long to adjust or not ready to face the faster pace of Minor league. We feel player development at this level is very important and a gradual progression of going from Coach Pitch to Farm level helps player’s skills, confidence, and overall enjoyment for the game.
