Coaching and Parent Involvement:
Our league is run entirely on volunteers and relies on parents to help coach. You do not need softball skills to help! Our league is about having fun and learning along the way. When registering your daughter, please select “yes” to the question asking if you would be willing to help out. Simple coaching tips can be found here to help get you started: gboptimist.com/coachingtips
We recommend every player have a glove, helmet, face mask and bat. We do not want equipment to be a factor in whether or not a child plays in our league. If you are not able to provide these things, please contact us so we can help.
Registration will close on March 13, 2026.
Due to logistics, late registrations cannot be accommodated.
Team assignments and schedules will be posted in late April/early May.
