Fall 2026 registration is now closed. Registered families can review season details, league information, equipment requirements, and other important information below.
All players should register for the correct division based on age. Players will only be allowed to play down in the case of a medical condition or serious safety concern approved by an SRA board member.
Players wishing to play up should notify their league commissioner. Placement in a higher division will depend on player evaluation, player safety, available roster space, and whether the move is appropriate for the player.
Anyone found altering a child’s birthdate to participate in a particular league will forfeit the player’s registration fee and may be prohibited from participating in future SRA seasons.
Player Age Guidelines
A player’s league placement is based on her age as of August 31, 2026.
Families with questions about whether a player is ready to move to a higher division should contact the Softball Vice President at softballvp@srasports.org .
