Yes! Each team can have a maximum of 7 males on the field. You can have 10 females on the field (with no guys). You can also not have more than 3 males bat in a row.

The minimum number for a softball team is 15 players. If you do not reach team status fear not, we will merge you with other groups to hit the minimum. Merged teams are generally larger to protect against forfeits. Want a larger or smaller team? You can register as a prepaid team to have as many or as few players on your roster.

Tons of fun! On game night you’ll want to arrive 10-15 minutes before your game to meet your teammates and get ready to play. After your game ends head to our sponsor bar for drink specials and getting to know your fellow softball players!
