About Redhawks Travel Softball
Redhawks is our travel softball program for girls in 8U and above who want to play at a more competitive level beyond recreation seasons. This program is currently managed through our parent organization Silicon Valley Youth Softball and also includes players from Palo Alto Youth Softball (PAYS). Travel ball competition involves playing weekend tournaments at within the local Bay Area and Central Valley.
Players must try out for all Redhawks teams. All Redhawks players will participate in practices and clinics. Redhawks players should attend at least 80% of all season events, including both practices and games. Playing time is based on capability, demonstrated effort on the practice field and commitment to personal skills improvement. This typically means that some players will play more than others in tournaments.
We offer a summer season consisting of USA Softball B/C (10U-12U) or Rec (8U) level tournament play.​​ Currently, Fall and Spring Select teams also are under the "Redhawks" program and will participate in tournaments. ​​​​​​
