SPRING FIELD LOCATIONS

Spring League: Norfolk County Softball League

The main focus of Dedham Girls Softball is to provide a fun, safe, educational and instructional Spring recreation league. We offer programs for girls in grades K-8. Please note that each girl will be placed in the division that best suits their skills and developmemt. Again, the safety of each girl impacts the division of play.

The Spring season runs from late April to early June and is capped off with our end of the year Awards Banquet.

 

Instructional Division


The Instructional Division is for players in grades K-3.

The focus is on teaching the fundamentals of the game while having fun

Sessions are held on Monday and/or Wednesday evenings starting at 6:00 p.m. at Sugrue Field ( turf field behind Park and Rec/Rte. 135)

 

Farm Division


In this division, the players will have basic skills and understanding of the game, and focus more on team play and skill-building.  There will be a combination of player-pitch and coach-pitch, ensuring no walks.

Farm Division is for players in grades 2-3. Some newer players can be asked to play at Instructional Level to learn basic hitting and fielding skills. Our goal is to place girls where they will be most successful and gain the most development during the Spring.

Preseason practices are held 1-2 times per week. Once games begin coaches will continue to practice in addition to approx 2 games per week.  Games will be played on Monday & Wednesday evenings.

Junior & Senior Divisions

Junior is for players in grades 3 -5. Some 3rd graders will play in the Junior Divsion based on what is best for their development and skills.

Senior Division is for players in grades 6 - 8

Preseason practices are held 1-2 times per week. Once games begin coaches will continue to practice in addition to approx 2 games per week.  Games will be played on Tue/Thur/Fri evenings.

No new inning will begin after 1 hour 45 minutes from first pitch. Uniform tops, socks and hats/visors are included in the registration fee and do NOT need to be returned.
