Fall is a great time to learn the fastpitch game as the atmosphere is more relaxed than the summer, and it gives our girls more repetitions to continue to improve their skills.
For Fall 2021, players will play at the same age level as Summer 2022, it will be based on a player's age on 12/31/2021. We also have opportunities available for 14U players through partnerships with Plymouth Wayzata Youth Softball Association and Eden Prairie Fastpitch if interested. .
Games are played on Saturday (10U) and Sunday (12U) afternoons where the girls would play doubleheaders at sites in the local metro area. Most teams will have a couple of practices prior to the games starting and practices during the week as scheduled by the coach.

Sandlot Softball (8U and under)-Back for 2022!
Sandlot softball is a program for players born in 2014-2017. It is designed to be a relaxed environment for our younger players to focus on developing fundamental skills of throwing, catching, fielding, hitting, and base running. Each evening will conclude with a controlled scrimmage or other fun activity. The goal is to help bridge the developmental gap between Coach Pitch/Tee Ball and the 8U level without the pressure of competing in games.
The program will be run by coaches from our association with assistance from the Hopkins HS softball players Players are encouraged to bring a friend. Their first week is free for your friend, and they will be charged $5 for subsequent weeks they choose to attend. Players from all associations in our area are welcome.
The program will run on Sunday nights from 6-7:30 at the Hopkins High School fields (located behind Tanglen Elementary) on August 21nd, August 28rd, September 11th, and September 18th.
