Minors Fastpitch Softball is for girls league age 9-11
There is a tryout and draft to set teams. Players are not guaranteed to be with specific teammates / coaches.
The Minors Division continues with player development, game awareness, and confidence while introducing more competitive play. Games are 75 minutes long and played with an 11-inch softball. To promote balanced competition and consistent pace of play, a five-run maximum per inning is enforced. Stealing is allowed once the ball crosses home plate, helping players develop base-running instincts and situational awareness in an age-appropriate setting. Girls will also be introduced to player pitching for the first time; players pitch from 40'.
The Minors division plays all of its games at McAllister Park against other McAllister park teams. There may be additional costs to secure a practice location, batting cages, etc. You will receive this information directly from your coach once your child is drafted to a team. If these (or registration costs) fees create an issue, please reach out to league leadership, or your child’s coach to discuss scholarship opportunities.
The spring season will feature a regular season as well as a post-season tournament. Additionally, during the spring season the top team will have the opportunity to play in a City Tournament and top players will have the opportunity to play in the All-Stars tournament, both in June.
