This program is for girls currently enrolled in Kindergarten and First Grade during the current School Year. The season starts the first week in May and runs through early June. Games will be held on Tuesday nights from 5:30-6:30pm at Wheelock School and a skills clinic will be held on Saturday Mornings from 9:15-10:30am at Wheelock School. All teams will play at the same time.
During the Saturday morning clinics, we will mix the players from the various teams to participate in hitting/fielding/throwing stations. When there is an opportunity to do so, we will introduce scrimmages against various surrounding towns for those that are interested (Medway, Millis etc).
Kindergarten softball and first grade softball will focus on the FUN-damentals of softball. The girls will start with T Stands and progress to coach pitch. We will not keep score, but will introduce the girls to the basic rules of the game.
Equipment: Players are expected to have a helmet with a cage and a glove. Jerseys will be provided. Bats and cleats are not required (you can use cleats from other sports at this age or sneakers). Coaches will have some shared equipment.
