What 14U Looks Like
Transition to the Big Field. Taking everything built from 9U to 12U onto the full-size field, with players keeping their confidence and aggressiveness as the game speeds up.
Hitting
Aggressive in your zone. Damage counts versus battle counts, and the hitter defines the pitch he’s hunting.
Defense
Want the hard play: the backhand, the do-or-die, the long throw.
Baserunning
Extra bases earned on a big field: timing the pitcher, reading the move, delayed steals.
Pitching
Work the full count ladder, read swings, track efficiency and control the running game.
- Training Focus
- Perform: strength and power, refined mechanics and on-field gameplay
- Field
- 80-ft bases and a 54-ft mound at 13U, the full 90 ft and 60 ft 6 in at 14U
- Positions
- A primary position emerges, and every player keeps a real second position all year
- Arm Care
- One breaking ball, added only once the fastball and changeup are commanded, 95 pitches a day max
- Playing Time
- Every player appears in every game and gets about 40% of the defensive innings across an event. Roles begin to reflect performance.
By the End of the Season
- Hitters stay aggressive against harder pitching and can describe their zone
- Players want the hard play, not just the routine one
- The team still takes extra bases, with smart outs instead of careless ones
- Pitchers throw strike one and win the 1-1 pitch
- Nobody quits because the field got bigger
