Our Focus is Fun
In our program, it’s all about having fun while growing our skills together. Winning is never the focus.
Exceptional Coaching
Our coaching staff is a mix of devoted parent volunteers, skilled professionals, and experienced high school players—all working together in a supportive, positive atmosphere to bring out the best in every player.
Friendship & Fun on the Field
Softball is more than just a game—it’s a chance to bond with friends! When making teams we try to group kids with classmates from school. More friendships = more fun.
Anyone Can Succeed!
You don’t need to be a top athlete to shine in softball! Softball is more about developing your skills — so anyone can become a successful player with time and effort. To encourage this, we offer optional skill development sessions at every level, in addition to regular team practices.
Baserunning Fun From Day One!
Running the bases is one of the joys of softball, and even beginning players get on base regularly.
Learn to Pitch; Be a Star!
Once you hit Grade 4, kid pitch takes off and the game reaches a new level of excitement! The fastpitch softball pitcher, using the windmill technique, is one of the most important positions in all of sports—and anyone can learn it with practice.
Start Whenever You’re Ready
While starting by Grade 3 (or earlier) is great, it’s never too late to join the game! Some girls don’t pick up a glove until middle school—and that’s totally fine.
Simple, Affordable Fun
All your daughter needs to start is a glove. We can provide the other equipment she needs. Softball is one of the most affordable sports out there, and if you need some help, financial assistance is available.
