Coach Pitch builds on the basics and helps players continue developing their skills in throwing, catching, hitting, fielding, and base running. At this level, players begin to learn simple game strategies and gain a better understanding of how the game flows. Volunteer parent coaches guide players through both skill development and teamwork.

The tee ball level is dedicated to players with birthdays between May 1, 2017, and April 30, 2019. Players born between May 1, 2017, and July 31, 2017 can choose between playing either Tee Ball or Coach Pitch.
