This will be our eighth season offering Academy Little League Softball and we aim to have several teams in both the Minors and Majors Divisions. Practices will start in March and games will begin in April.
As we begin our this season of softball, we want to again recognize the tremendous volunteer spirit of those who contribute to our league’s success. Last year was a great success because of the hard work of all of our volunteers. This year we will continue to work on all four of our divisions and help develop softball here in Colorado Springs.
Mr. Chris Stock will be leading our efforts this year as our new Softball Coordinator! We remain confident with your continued support that Academy Little League will again be recognized as the finest Little League in the region. To that end, we remain committed to operating our league in accordance with the guiding principles and policies established by Little League Softball.
One distinctive difference between Little League programs such as ours and other softball programs is the minimum play rule. All players must play a minimum of six defensive outs and have one at bat in each full regulation game. In addition, all players will be placed on a team regardless of ability. We are a developmental softball league that focuses on the softball development of each individual player through out the league.
