Welcome to Girls Softball

East Meadow Girls Softball is for players League Age 5 to 18. The cutoff date for each age level is December 31st.  Player's league age as of December 31st determines which division they are to play. For the 2023 Spring Intramural Season for example, a player born on December 1, 2014 would be League Age 8 and play in our Farms division, whereas a player born on January 1, 2012 would be League Age 10 and play in the Minors division. One of the key concepts we stress in Girls Softball is “Sportsmanship”, we try and instill in our players, managers, and coaches that sportsmanship is more important than winning. Please see the 2024 Little League Age Chart - Softball Division for clarification on where your child will be classified as “League Age”.

Girls Softball consists of East Meadow intramural seasons, described below, and travel programs starting at 8u (league ages 7 & 8 ) and going through 14u (league ages 9-14).

Players league ages 3 and 4 are welcome to participate in our kickball program run by our Mini League.

 

Season:

The season typically starts in late March / early April and runs through June (Ponytails starts later in April when the weather is warmer for the younger age groups).

 

Games:

Games played during the week may start between 5:30PM and 6PM.

Games played on weekends will have scheduled start times ranging from 9AM to 6PM.

Players should arrive 30-45 minutes prior to game time.

Game length is typically 1 and 1/2 hours to 2 hours, and consist of 6 innings (7 innings for Juniors and Seniors). Game time slots will be 2 and 1/2 hours (for Farms through Juniors) with no new inning beginning after 1 hour and 50 minutes and the game will end no later than 2 hours and 15 minutes to allow for the teams to clean up their gear, leave the dugout area and the next teams to enter the dugout.

 

Practice:

Will be determined by the Manager.

 

Uniforms:

EMBSA provides a full uniform comprising of shirt, pants, and socks (Spring season)

 

Intramural Rules:

http://embsa.net/em-rules

 

Playing Equipment:

Parents must provide glove, bat, rubber cleats, and a batting helmet with a face mask and chin strap (each team bag will contain a batting helmet for players without their own). Ponytails require a field mask. Heart guard and field mask is recommended for all players in all age groups above Ponytails (especially Minors and above). Non Ponytails division must use Softball Fast Pitch bats - length and weight is player preference. Slow Pitch bats are not permitted.

Catchers gear will be supplied by EMBSA.

 

Coaching:

Team coaching staffs consist of a volunteer manager, two to three volunteer coaches, and a volunteer team parent.

Anyone expressing interest in managing or coaching should contact the Player Agents. All volunteers must complete and submit a volunteer form resulting in an approved background check.

Ponytails Division:

Our Ponytail division is for players league age 5 and 6. Players are introduced to the game of softball utilizing 11” Softie or Training balls and bat off of a tee. Fundamentals are stressed at this age level, teaching them to “throw like a girl”, catch as well as hitting. At some point during the season, coaches usually transition the players from using the tee to “coach pitching”. All players bat every inning, outs are not recorded and score is not kept.

Farms Division:
 

Our Farms division is for players league age 7 and 8. Building on the fundamentals taught in the Ponytail division, play is advanced by introducing a pitching machine utilizing 11” Dimple balls, the machine is electric powered and is approximately 35 feet from home plate and the balls are pitched at approximately 35 mph. Each batter gets five pitches in an attempt to either reach a base or record an out. Each player does not bat every inning as inning end with either three outs or five runs scored. Score is kept for these games but standings are not recorded, and therefor playoffs are not held. Players in this division are eligible to try out for the 8u Travel Team.

Innings consist of either three outs or four runs scored, with the exception of the sixth inning. Score is kept for these games and standings are recorded, playoffs are held in this division. Players in this division are eligible to try out for the 10u Williamsport Travel Team.
