Below are some helpful tips to keep in mind when registering and a step-by-step guide to the registration process.  If you have any questions or problems with the registration process, please see Registration FAQs, email us, or call our hotline at 650-964-6489.

 

 
Experience An accurate assessment of each player’s experience helps us form the most balanced teams possible. Tell us how many (if any) seasons your player has played in organized softball.
Pitcher / Catcher Please indicate if you daughter was a primary or secondary Pitcher or Catcher on a team last season as we evenly distribute these players across teams.

New players with prior pitching experience will be evaluated prior to team placement.  Players interested in learning these positions should inform their Coach at the first practice.
Sister or Buddy Request This field allows you to name a Sister or a Buddy to play on  the same age division team.

Buddy requests are only for girls in 10U and higher. Both girls must request each other on their respective registration forms.  Note: buddies may not both be pitchers or catchers and it may not be possible for two All-Star or Nova players to be buddies.

Special Requests

Use this field to indicate special requests such as
- a different school in 6U/8U
- request to play up/down

- request to NOT play with sister
- other information that will help us place your player appropriately.

Volunteer Each family is requested to make a selection in the volunteer area. Every effort is made by team/ league staff to make volunteering as easy and convenient to your schedule as possible. The Team Manager will contact you regarding your selection.
