The Georgia State Little League Association created the Coach Pitch Baseball and Softball Tournaments in 2023. The tournament is limited to league age 6 and 7 year olds for baseball and to 6, 7 and 8 year olds for softball.
These are Special Games Tournaments and as such the state association applies for and receives approval every year to host the tournaments. The rules of the tournaments are submitted for approval before play can begin.
The state uses a Tournament Eligibility Affidavit, similar to the one used by Little League International, to verify the age and residence of every player.
The Tournament is broken down into 3 sections: District, Section and State.
- District: Each district advances 2 teams to the Section.
- Section: There are 3 sections in the state: NW (districts 1, 2, 3,4); NE (districts 6, 7, 10) and S (districts 5, 8, 9). The winner of each section advances to the state tournament.
- State: The State Tournament is hosted by Martinez Evans LL. The tournament will be held in June, start date June 12.
