Is there a recommended limit of pitches thrown per game for 12 year old?

Yes, there is a recommended limit of pitches thrown per game for 12-year-olds. According to the Little League Pitch Count Guidelines, the maximum number of pitches a 12-year-old player can throw in a game is 85. Additionally, there are restrictions on the number of pitches a player can throw in a single inning and in consecutive innings.

Here are the Little League Pitch Count Guidelines for 12-year-olds:

Maximum Pitches per Game: 85

Maximum Pitches per Inning: 35

Maximum Pitches in Consecutive Innings: 65

Rest Between Innings: A pitcher must rest for at least one inning after throwing 35 pitches or reaching the maximum pitches allowed for that inning. If a pitcher reaches the maximum pitches allowed for the game, they must sit out the remainder of the game.

These guidelines are in place to help prevent overuse injuries and promote the long-term health of young pitchers. Pitchers and coaches should follow these guidelines carefully to ensure that pitchers stay healthy and able to enjoy baseball for many years to come.
