*NEW AGE CHARTS for USA SOFTBALL were released in Fall 2023 for play in SPRING 2024. The new ages allow players born SEP/OCT/NOV/DEC of a given year (that would have otherwise moved up) to stay in the lower age level. These changes were made to align with school age. The league will follow the new ranges; however, you may select the next level up if your player Falls into this category (SEP/OCT/NOV/DEC moving up per old charts). For example, a player born October 2014 would have typically moved up to 10U, but may now play one more year at 8U level (but may also move up).

Team placements will be determined on many factors including number of participants at each age level, skill levels, requests, pitcher/catcher assignments, etc. If you have any requests, please add them in the comments during registration.
