Two appearances in a day: allowed if the pitcher did not exceed the minimum rest threshold (30 at 13U, 35 at 15U) in the first appearance. Combined pitches decide the rest days. A pitcher cannot pitch in three games on the same calendar day.
Two-day maximum: 85 pitches at 13U Boys/14U Girls; 95 at 15U Boys/16U Girls. Example: 20 pitches Thursday leaves 65 on Friday at 13U.
Three consecutive days: allowed only if the first two days combined do not exceed 30 (13U) or 35 (15U). On the third day, the combined total over the three days is capped at 85 (13U) or 95 (15U). This applies to three consecutive days only; there is no maximum three-day pitch limit otherwise.
Four consecutive days: a pitcher cannot pitch on four consecutive days.
Four-day maximum: 120 pitches at 13U/14U Girls; 135 at 15U/16U Girls over any four consecutive days.
Rest required by any of these rules is immediate.
