Ages 15+
Here’s your chance to get in on the softball action this summer! We offer a variety of leagues that will fit
your skill level, as well as Co-rec, Women’s, and Men’s Leagues.
Player Eligibility:
Players must be 15 years of age by May 1, 2010 to play. Players may only play on one double header
team or one women’s team. These leagues must be adjacent in ability. For example, a player may not
play on a Tuesday night doubleheader team and a Wednesday night doubleheader league because
they are different skill levels. The player can play in Monday single header or a co-rec team. Also,
players may only be listed on one roster per league.
Registration Guidelines:
At the time of registration, an application and all fees are due. No registrations will be accepted without
full payment! If your team is sponsored, both the manger and your sponsor must complete and sign a
sponsor form available on-line or at Bresnan Meeting Center. Both signatures must be on the form for it
to be valid. Completed rosters with names, addresses, phone numbers, and signatures will be due the
first day of games.
