Spring Description: This division of softball is for girls ages 9 & 10. The players will pitch to batters and players are introduced to a higher level of competitiveness. As with the Farms, the coaches introduce players to different positions. Again, the goal is to position a player so that their skills are challenged and yet they have a good chance for success. Teams compete with teams from surrounding communities in the same age group, and scores and standings are kept with all teams making the playoffs. Games are played at Tully Park , Manor Oaks , Merillon Field's and various other fields.
Fall Description: This division is for girls ages 6 through 9. It is intended to develop skills of throwing, catching and hitting. We emphasize the importance of listening to the coaches, respecting officials/umpires, and having FUN. Although it is a team game, we ask each child to work hard to realize their own INDIVIDUAL POTENTIAL. Competition at this level is not stressed. Although games are scheduled and played there are no standings in this league.
