Intermediate (50/70) - Little League Baseball
Ages 11-13
The Little League Intermediate (50-70) Division is for players 11 to 13 years old. The program is a transitional program for 11 to 13 year olds using 50 foot pitching distance and 70 foot base paths. This division is an excellent opportunity for advanced players to begin their transition into fully competitive baseball, and features lead offs, pickoffs, balks, and full baseball rules on field dimensions that are developmentally appropriate for the age level and maintain the integrity of the game. There are no run limits, and games are 7 innings or 2:15 hours long. Players may play on an Intermediate team as well as a majors team within the same season, however pitch count rules apply across divisions. Intermediates teams participate in interleague play around the Denver metro area.
