5-Pitch Plucky® is a Game Changer
Kids
Baseball
Adults
Regardless of whether your kid has played softball or baseball before or not, 5-Pitch Plucky® provides game-speed repetition. Game-speed repetition is what makes players better. An 80-minute game of 5-Pitch Plucky® gave each player 3.5 plate appearances. On defense, there were 18.4 balls-in-play per game (around 5.25 per inning) that had to be fielded. Repetition builds confidence and confidence builds success.
5-Pitch Plucky® can be a solution for those kids who want to play casually, BUT, it's also a fantastic training tool for those who want to elevate their game.

Camaraderie
Action
With the modified rules and 'meatball' pitches, fast-paced baseball keeps the ball in play frequently. For younger ballplayers, this means they gain confidence through numerous reps, while adult players enjoy ample exercise. Each game lasts only 80 minutes, typically featuring four innings. We see an impressive 16-20 plate appearances per inning, with about 78% of those resulting in a ball-in-play. When the ball is in play, the action is lively, contributing to community building as everyone is always moving and engaged. No one loses focus due to the constant action. The 5-Pitch Plucky® format was specifically designed to promote inclusive baseball, getting more people INTO the game, both figuratively and literally.

We set the tone for a casual, yet competitive game of baseball by shouting:

Frequently Asked Questions
If you cannot find an answer to your question, contact CoachD@5PitchPlucky.com
So what?! If you have ever watched a baseball game then you are qualified to play. You'll love it! We've had people who have watched their kids play for years but never got on the other side of the fence who now play regularly. Kids who gave up on baseball in their early years have found 5-Pitch Plucky® to ignite their interest in playing again. Regardless of your experience or skill level, it's fun. Get INTO the game!
We haven't come across a game yet that hasn't included a cross-section of player skills, gender, age, or physical characteristics (just look at some of the photos on this website!). Some games have had 10 year-olds playing with former MLB players. Every game has been a blast for everyone.
Heck yes. Of course they can and they have a blast. There have been so many females who have played 5-Pitch Plucky® we can't keep count. We welcome anyone who wants to throw, catch, and bat.
Seasons are eight games. We play at the same field on the same day at the same time, making it easier to coordinate on your calendar. Games are typically four innings and run no longer than an hour and a half.
There are no practices. We show up each week for games and do our best. It's fun because it's really about the joy of the game, not the points on the board at the end. Kind of like life.
No problem. We understand busy schedules. The format is flexible so that if you can't play one game or two, we'll still field two teams and have a great time without you. We'll miss you, but we'll play without you. : )
Jump over to our [Register] page. You should also subscribe to our newsletter to get updates on camaraderies in your area.
Our youth players like to wear baseball pants so they can slide. The adults don't slide all that much so they typically wear shorts. Registered pluckers wear their reversible jerseys over a T-shirt. Cleats or tennis shoes are fine. We're out here to HAVE FUN.
Don't worry about spending money before playing, there are community gloves, helmets, and bats available at every game.
It depends. There are no bat restrictions for youth players. For adults in certain camaraderies, players will be assigned a particular type of bat so nobody gets hurt.
