| Notes | Innings-based, not pitch counts (1 out = 1/3 inning). Pitch counts may be used in major events with approval. 15U-18U are unlimited under the national chart. State USSSA directors may set event rules, e.g. Michigan USSSA uses an 8-inning cap for the whole event: https://mibaseball.usssa.com/michigan-usssa-rules/ |
When can they pitch again? Add every day they pitched (tournaments often start Thursday).
Rest days are calendar days after the game date, so 3 days of rest after a Tuesday outing means eligible Saturday. Consecutive-day, multi-day and event caps are applied where the rule states numbers; anything else is listed as not calculated.
