MSBS Farm Softball is an Introductional Division for 6, 7 and 8 year olds
Instruction in this division will include the introduction of playing rules as well as learning and practicing softball skills. Practices will focus on fundamentals of the game in a fun and continuously moving environment. During the games, all players play the field, batters will be pitched to by a coach, and each player will hit in every inning. No score is kept and coaches assist players while on the field. Teams will be limited to 6-9 players to allow maximum instructional opportunities for all players. No previous experience required.
Equipment Requirements:
- Cleats (highly recommended but not required)
- Fielding mask (price range $15-$40)
- Batting helmet with cage and chin strap
- Glove
- Bat (optional but must be USA Softball certified)
**8 year olds that have at least one year experience in Farm softball may be able to move up to Minor softball if their skill level permits and there is space available.
Practices – 1-2 times per week. Day of week TBD
Games – Typically 1 game per week. Day of week changes based on schedule. MSBS formally AVLL is part of the Cortland Softball League which includes other towns and there may be some travel involved. Once we determine how many teams MSBS will field the schedule will be made and released.
