Fairfield 10U/12U Travel Softball

Program Description: These are non-for profit, rec level travel teams. Our goal is to help players grow and develop. We are looking for competitive girls who love to play and are wanting to better themselves on the field. Positive attitudes and respect for teammates and coaches is also expected. It is required for players to also play in the FYL in house league. The travel season is from April until July. There will be some conditioning days prior to that. There will be two to three practices a week starting in April. These are held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and/or Saturday mornings. 10u participates in local scrimmages with other travel teams, these are used to help develop players. 12u participates in the local Seriously Softball League. Both teams will travel for 3-4 out of town tournaments up to two hours away that may extend over a period of days.

Program’s Mission: The purpose of the program is to develop and maintain a competitive softball program that extends beyond the normal recreational season. This rec level travel program offers a more competitive atmosphere without committing to the demands and cost of a full A/B full travel program.

Tournament/Game Play/Practice: The head coach will schedule all tournaments and adhere to the assigned budget in place. It is anticipated that players may be required to travel up to 2 hours in distance from the New Paris fields. Tournaments will compete against other rec travel teams in a tournament style setting. These tournaments typically take place on the weekends through June-July. Practices will be determined by the head coach. Practices begin in early April, with a few potential conditioning dates prior to that. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturday mornings the fields are reserved for travel practices.

Divisions: There will be (2) divisions consisting of a 10U (10 or under on 1/1/2024) and 12U (12 or under on 1/1/2024) travel team, however execution will depend on both coach and player participation. If your player is interested in playing on a travel team, please fill out the tryout form and plan to have your player at one of the travel tryouts.
