Spring 2025 Junior League Softball

Grades: 4 & 5
Games: Every Saturday at 3:30pm & Thursday at 6:00pm. There will be one Saturday night game at 7:30pm.
Practices: One practice scheduled by coach during the week, plus optional skills and pitching sessions on Sunday afternoons
Season: Early April to Mid-June (nothing over April vacation or Memorial Day weekend)
Cost: $275 (plus a $50 uniform charge - see below)

The Junior Softball League is designed to provide girls in the 4th & 5th grades an opportunity to have fun learning and playing fast pitch softball. There is a strong emphasis on learning fundamental skills of pitching, fielding, base running, and batting. This is a mostly kid-pitch league with simplified rules.

For example: base stealing is limited; all players bat whether or not they are in the field; the strike zone is expanded slightly; positions are rotated so that everyone plays a mix of infield and outfield; and to keep games competitive, there is usually a maximum number of runs per inning. Players get approximately equal playing time.

Players (typically) pitch with the windmill style, and are limited to 3 innings in a game. The pitching rubber is 35 feet from home plate.

Beginning players are welcome to sign up provided they make a strong commitment to attending practice.

Most games are played in Wellesley with some games played in Wayland and Weston. An All-Star game is played in Wellesley in late May or early June with playoffs to follow ending in mid-June (playoff games may be held any day of the week). Coaching is primarily by parent volunteers. In creating the teams we try to keep girls together with at least some of their classmates.

Players are expected to attend a majority of practices and games. Parents are expected to keep coaches informed of their child’s plans. Games will not be held over Memorial Day Weekend.

In addition to parent coaching, we expect to have professional instruction from Frozen Ropes, DC Baseball Academy or another professional program.

Players should have their own glove. They are encouraged to bring their own bats and helmets, but coaches can provide loaners upon advance request.

Uniforms: Girls who played Junior League last spring or 10U last fall will wear the light/dark jerseys they already have. New players (or returning players who outgrew or lost their jerseys) will indicate jersey size at registration and will be given two jerseys, one light and one dark, to wear this season and in future spring and fall seasons until outgrown. Jerseys are high quality and have last names on backs. There is a $50 charge for each set of new jerseys. Players are encouraged to wear softball pants (supplied by families), which should be black (not white, not gray). Socks will be provided.

Parent volunteers are needed for coaching! A background check must be completed prior to the season. A link will be in the confirmation email.
