Baseball Base Sizes for 13-14 Year Olds: NFHS Rules & Best Practices

Question
Hi Michael

Should 13/14 baseball be using 15" bases or 14" bases. Currently our 15/18 players are using 15" bases as per NFHS Rules. Our T-Ball through 11/12 uses 14" bases.

Thanks
Rob

Answer
Rob,

I do not know the rules regarding base size at that age.  I know that when we were playing 13/14 year old, we played on 80  ft baselines and a 54 ft mound, then moved up to 60/90 at 15.  But as far as base sizes, I honestly never knew there was a difference.

Sorry I couldn't help on this one.

Mike
