Down East Girls Softball

Down East Girls Softball League (DEGSL) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting all the positive aspects of amateur girls’ softball. The purpose of DEGSL is to share and promote the game of softball, as one of the many possible aspects of a balanced childhood and adolescence. Emphasis is placed on the development of softball skills without sacrificing the enjoyment of playing the game. Our goal is to teach the girls softball fundamentals, help the players build confidence and self-esteem, and to model the characteristics of team play. The coaches are required to promote a high level of sportsmanship, and to lead by positive example. The objective is to implant firmly in the players, the ideals of good sportsmanship, honesty, courage, and respect for authority, so that they may be well adjusted, stronger and happier, and will grow to be healthy, responsible, and trustworthy adults.

Girls and young women from the ages of four (4) through eighteen (18) are eligible to participate in the League. All ages are based on the girls' ages as of January 1st of the current playing season. The girls are placed in divisions as per current BABE RUTH SOFTBALL rules.

* 2024 Spring Registration Has Begun!! *

January 13 - February 17, 2024

You will be able to register your player in her age group or choose to Duel Roster her or register her in the next Age Up level.

Duel Rostering: Your player will be registered on a team in her age group AND will be rostered to a team in the next level age group. Her first priority will be to her age group team for all games. If she does not have a game scheduling conflict, she will be available to the next age group team as an additional player to fill their roster as needed. There is no extra cost associated with duel rostering.

Age Up Registration: Your player will be registered on a team in the next level age group up. She will be a full member of the team and will be eligible for All Stars in that age group. If, during preseason practices, the Coaches, She, and You, feel the age level is too much, she may transfer down to a team in her age group if there is an available slot.
