Pitch Count App for Youth Coaches
Set your league's limit once, then count every pitcher you use tonight. A heads-up at 10 and 5 pitches out, a separate limit for any one kid, and every final count when the game ends.
Free. Runs in your phone's browser. No account.
What a Pitch Count App Does That a Clicker Cannot
A pitch count app counts every pitch for every pitcher you use, warns you before a pitcher reaches the limit your league plays to, and keeps the final counts when the game ends so you know what each pitcher threw.
Every pitcher in one place
Each pitcher keeps his own count. Make the change and the next pitch goes on the new pitcher.
A heads-up before the limit
At 10 and 5 pitches out you get a warning with the number left, which is your cue to get somebody warm.
A lower limit for one kid
Coming back from a sore arm, or first year on the mound? Give him his own number.
Final counts after the game
End the game to see every pitcher’s total next to his limit, ready to check against the rest-day chart.
Little League Pitch Count Chart
Pitch counts are a rule in Little League, not a guideline. Each league age has a daily limit, and the number of pitches a pitcher throws sets how many days of rest he owes before he can pitch again.
| League age | Pitches |
|---|---|
| 6-8 | 50 |
| 9-10 | 75 |
| 11-12 | 85 |
| 13-14 | 95 |
| 15-16 | 95 |
| Pitches | Days |
|---|---|
| 1-20 | 0 |
| 21-35 | 1 |
| 36-50 | 2 |
| 51-65 | 3 |
| 66+ | 4 |
| Pitches | Days |
|---|---|
| 1-30 | 0 |
| 31-45 | 1 |
| 46-60 | 2 |
| 61-75 | 3 |
| 76+ | 4 |
- A pitcher who reaches his limit in the middle of a batter may finish that batter.
- No pitcher may pitch on three consecutive days, whatever the counts say.
- Want it on paper for the dugout? The printable pitch count chart and sheets are free.
App, Online Counter or Paper?
Use this app when you will use more than one pitcher and want the warnings. For a single pitcher counted inning by inning, the online pitch count tracker is simpler.
If you are also keeping score, the Game Day scorekeeping app counts pitches on its own as you record each at-bat, with the same warnings, so you are not tapping twice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a free app that can track pitch counts?
Yes. This pitch count app is free and runs in your phone’s browser, so there is nothing to download and no account to make. Pick your league’s rules, tap once per pitch, and it counts every pitcher you use with a heads-up 10 and 5 pitches before the limit.
Can I track more than one pitcher in the same game?
Yes. Each pitcher keeps his own count. Tap Change pitcher (or pick a name from the staff list on a tablet or computer) and the next pitch goes on whoever is on the mound. In Little League Majors and below a pitcher once removed from the mound cannot pitch again that game. In Intermediate, Junior and Senior League he can come back once, and the app picks his count up where it stopped.
How many pitches can a 12 year old throw in Little League?
Little League allows 85 pitches a day for league age 11-12. League age 9-10 is 75, 6-8 is 50, and 13-16 is 95.
How many days rest after 70 pitches in Little League?
For league age 14 and under, 66 or more pitches in a day means 4 days of rest. For league age 15-16, 61 to 75 pitches means 3 days.
What happens when a pitcher reaches the limit in the middle of a batter?
Under Little League rules he may finish that batter. The app tells you when a pitcher reaches the limit and turns his count red, and the warning lines 10 and 5 pitches earlier give you time to get somebody warm first.
Does the app tell me when a pitcher can pitch again?
Not yet. It keeps the final count for every pitcher, and the rest-day chart on this page shows what each count means under Little League rules. Your league’s official pitch count record is the one that counts.
Can I set a lower limit for one pitcher?
Yes. When you add a pitcher you can give him his own limit, for a kid coming back from a sore arm or a first-year pitcher. His own limit replaces the team limit for him, with the same heads-up 10 and 5 pitches out.
My league does not use Little League rules. Can I still use it?
Yes. Choose "My league’s own limit" and type the number your league plays to. Travel ball, high school and softball leagues all set their own rules, so check yours and enter that number.
