Our softball program is open to all youth ages 5 to 14.  Our “league age” is the age of the player as of January 1st of each year.

The following is a brief outline of our programs.

8U (Coach Pitch) – Coach Pitch ages: 5, 6, 7 & first-year 8 year olds. Coach Pitch is for the first or second year developing player, teaching them the basic fundamentals of the game of softball.  The emphasis is on fun and learning, in a non-competitive atmosphere.  The teams will have a couple of practices per week during May, then 2 games per week on weeknights beginning the first week of June.  The games take place within a localized area.  The travel is minimal; with most games in and around the Sunset High School (note: Travel to Banks for 3-4 games per season is normal).  The season concludes mid-July.  Batters will have the chance to hit pitches (5-6) from coaches and if needed they will then use the batting tee.  Games and practices are played with a ‘softer’ T-ball type softball to help in the learning process.
