Post 8 and under usgfp coach pitch rules

I am about to start an 8 and under team. after the hitter hits the ball is it the same as usfa rules where stoppage of play and time is called by the umpire and the ball is thrown by the pitcher once of course the ball is held in the air by the appropriate defensive player in front of the most advanced runner did not see that in the rule book. please can anyone clarify

USGFP Rules

Damon, have you read through the 8U rules? If so, maybe the last line will cover your question.

Yet another case of no punctuation. Come on, guys. If you really want us to help, please help us first. Put some punctuation in your sentences.

why do you have such a problem when people don't punctuate it seems like some posts are perfectly readable and you are just complaining for no reason there is no reason to slow down ones typing with such mundane things as punctuate even though they are trying to get a answer to a sometimes muddied problem you know upon further review you might be right.

8 year olds are so cute when they start their own team.

I suggest asking your teacher or mommy to help you type a question, then maybe we can help you.

Good luck! That is very challenging for an adult, let alone an 8 year old.

I said the very same thing to my wife last night. She was goin on and on saying something. I think she was saying something about me not paying enough attention to her. I'm not really sure what she was saying... I wasn't paying much attention.
