Question
whats the general distance from pitiching mound to home plate. Iam not sure what league we play in. Just trying to get the some what right distance. 11 year old girls fast pitch softball thanks!!

Answer
Hello Darren

Under ASA youth fastpitch rules (most organizations follow) for 10U pitching distance would be 35' however your 11 year old girls would fall under the 12U distance which is 40'

40' is also the distance for 14U, 16U, and 18U.

College is 43'

The distance is measure from the back of the home plate to the front of the pitching plate.
