HONG KONG—Coach pitch (Slow Pitch) baseball is a new starter league organized by the Hong Kong Baseball Association for children aged 6 to 11. It fills a gap between the Tealeaves baseball training for 4-5 year old children and the major league (8-11) which leads onto the Pony league (10-14) run by the Association in coordination with Pony League USA.

Baseball is still in its infancy in Hong Kong and various groups have set up their own training and league arrangements.
