Good morning! I know the 8u division is tough to find sometimes, but I wanted to pass along two tournament options in the Toledo area. The 8u division has grown each year.
A growing trend across the state has been towards a modified kid pitch at the 8u level. Batters cannot walk... kids pitch to each hitter until they put the ball in play, they strikeout, or there are 4 balls thrown. If 4 balls are thrown, the coach comes in to pitch and finish the at bat.
It's been a great way to begin slowly exposing the girls to:
- begin pitching
- batting against a kid pitching (rather than a coach throwing a meat pitch)
If you have any questions or would like info., send me a private message or post on here
