89ers - 89er Softball is for girls who are League Age 8 and 9.
Nine year olds will be those not selected by Managers to Minors after having gone through the Skills Assessment. The pitching rules are modified from standard softball as an introduction to player pitching but with no walks allowed. Instead, after a four ball count, the coach will deliver the remaining pitches up to three strikes or three pitches, whichever comes first, resulting in an out or a hit. Balls used are regulation-size softballs. Practices start in March and teams will play 14 - 16 games per season with practices interspersed until mid June. Players receive a hat to keep and a uniform for use only during the season. The 89er fee is $120.00 per player.
