Standard Little League Field Not drawn to scale How to convert a standard Little League field to a Little League Intermediate (50/70) Baseball Division field

Standard Little League Field 200 feet or more 60 feet 46 feet Not drawn to scale This presentation will explain the step-by-step process of converting a standard Little League field, so that it can also be used for the Little League Intermediate (50/70) Baseball Division. A standard Little League field has base paths of 60 feet, and a pitching distance of 46 feet (measured from the back point of home plate to the front edge of the pitcher’s plate) . The distance from the back point of home plate to the outfield fence should be at least 200 feet, but not more than 275 feet, for a field that will be used for both the standard 46-60 Little League Division, and the Intermediate League.

Extending the “Skin” Area Grass to be removed Not drawn to scale Extending the “Skin” Area In this first section, part of the outfield grass is removed, which will extend the clay area of the infield.

Extending the “Skin” Area Stake goes here Not drawn to scale Extending the “Skin” Area Drive a stake into the ground at the center of the back edge of the pitcher’s plate.

Extending the “Skin” Area 69 feet Not drawn to scale Extending the “Skin” Area Extend the measuring tape (or 69-foot chain/rope) 69 feet until it intersects with one of the foul lines as shown.

Extending the “Skin” Area White Paint or chalk, 69 feet from back of pitcher’s plate Not drawn to scale Extending the “Skin” Area Using eco-friendly field marking paint or chalk, create an arc through the outfield grass to the other foul line, maintaining the 69-foot distance from the back of the pitcher’s plate.

Extending the “Skin” Area Remove Grass Not drawn to scale Extending the “Skin” Area Using a sod-cutter (ideally), remove the grass inside the arc. Replace soil with clay or infield mix.

New bases Not drawn to scale Adding New Bases The anchors for three new bases will need to be installed underground. First, second and third base at all levels are required to disengage their anchor.

The distances between bases for Intermediate League layout are shown. Distance from outside edge of first and third base to CENTER of second base: 70 feet. Distance from back point of home plate to outside edge of first and third base: 70 feet Not drawn to scale Adding New Bases The distances between bases for Intermediate League layout are shown.

The distances between bases for Intermediate League layout are shown. Distance from back point of home plate to CENTER of second base: 99 feet. Not drawn to scale Adding New Bases The distances between bases for Intermediate League layout are shown.

Dis-engageable base Ground level Low-profile rubber pad Metal sleeve Metal post Concrete anchor Not drawn to scale Adding New Bases The base must dislodge from its anchor. One style of such a base is shown above in cutaway view. The low-profile pad (shown in red) is at ground level, so it can be left in place while the dis-engageable base is removed. This permits the bases to be moved back and forth as needed, so that the field can be used for either 46-60 games, or Intermediate League games.

Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Not drawn to scale Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound The next step is to enlarge the pitcher’s mound and install a new pitcher’s plate.

Aligned with middle of second base Drive stake here Existing Mound (10 foot diameter) 48 feet, 6 inches Not drawn to scale Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Remove the stake placed in the mound earlier. Now, drive that stake into the ground, centered on a line between home plate and second base, 48 feet, six inches from the back point of home plate. (It will be 18 inches back from the front edge of the existing pitcher’s plate.)

Tape measure, chain or rope (6 feet) New Mound (12 foot diameter) Tape measure, chain or rope (6 feet) Stake 000 Existing Mound (10 foot diameter) Not drawn to scale Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Using a tape measure or pre-measured length of rope or chain (6 feet ), create a 12-foot diameter circle as shown. Contouring the mound, detailed on the next page, is not necessary if the infield is “crowned” so that the rise from home plate to the pitcher’s plate is gradual.

Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Stake (48 feet, 6 inches from the back point of home plate) Front edge of standard Little League pitcher’s plate (46 feet from the back point of home plate) Front edge of Intermediate League pitcher’s plate (50 feet from back point of home plate) Level of home plate Second base 8 inches 6 inches Feet 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 18 inches from stake to front edge of intermediate League pitcher’s plate Not drawn to scale 30 inches from stake to front edge of standard LL pitcher’s plate Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Contour the mound as shown above in a cutaway view, with a gradual/even degree of slope. Both pitcher’s plates for Little League Majors and the Intermediate League are 18 inches by four inches. (Shown from the first-base side of the infield.)

Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Level area of 50-foot pitcher’s plate Level area of 46-foot pitcher’s plate 6 inches 4 inches 15 inches 11 inches 18 inches 18 inches 11 inches 15 inches 40 inches 48 inches 17 inches 30 inches Level of home plate Second base Feet 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Not drawn to scale 48 inches from front edge of standard Little League pitcher’s plate, to front edge of 50-foot (Intermediate League) pitcher’s plate Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound Create level areas as shown above for the two pitcher’s plates. (Shown from the first-base side of the infield.)

Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound New Mound (12 foot diameter) 000 000 Pitcher’s plate for standard Little League field to be removed during Intermediate League games Optional landing area Not drawn to scale Toward home plate Modifying the Pitcher’s Mound The pitcher’s plate that is noted above must be removed during Intermediate League games. Also, an optional extended area may be added, to help prevent loss of grass in front of the mound. However, this area is not considered part of the mound.
