The Department of Housing Parks and Recreation is sponsoring a junior girls fast pitch softball league for women under the age of 18. There will be two divisions in this league: An 18 and under and a 13 and under. There are about 100 young women that have signed thus far for the league.
The league is slated to start in early June and run until the end of August. While parental support has been strong, the league is in need of sponsors. A sponsorship cost $500 per team. League organizers hope to make softball a year round sport. After the summer league organizers plan to have another league beginning in October. This will give the young women an avenue to play more softball and improve on their skills. For more information contact Arsenio Riveria at 775-6435 between the hours of 2pm and 10pm, Sunday through Thursday. Each team is going to play 18 games this summer.
