An eleven-inch softball, sixty-foot base paths and a thirty-five-foot pitching distance will be utilized for this level. Teams will play other local towns so some travel is required. Typically, teams will play or practice a maximum of three times per calendar week.

Minors AAA Softball (Ages 9-11):

The Minors AAA softball division is open to girls from softball age 9 to 11. While the emphasis is still on basic skill development, this level is more competitive then the Minors AA division with pitching being a combination of player and coach pitch.

Typically, teams will play or practice a maximum of three times per calendar week.

Majors Softball (Ages 10-12):

The Majors softball division is open to girls from softball age 10 to 12. This level is more advanced then the Minors AAA division and the full Little League softball rules apply.
