Our recreation softball program runs from early May to mid-June. Girls who meet the age and residency criteria may register regardless of their experience. Players are organized into teams within age divisions. The uniform (included in the registration fee) consists of a personalized jersey and a visor. Each player will need to provide a fielding glove and batting helmet equipped with both a face cage and chin strap. All players at the AAA and Majors levels will be required to have a mouth guard for every game. Girls playing pitcher, first base and third base are required to wear mouth guards during play.

Parents help coach, manage teams, and prepare the fields for games. Each division will play games on Saturdays, one evening each week and an occasional Sunday afternoon game.
