Interested in summer softball?

The MiddleEssex league is seeking Softball Players in Birth Years 2002 to 2013 (ages 8 to 18) for a summer weeknight league.

This is a great primary playing opportunity for players who are not on a tournament team, as well as a great opportunity for players who are on a tournament team to get more game action . . . maybe more innings that you’re able to get in tournament games, maybe time at a preferred position that you don’t get in tournament games . . . or maybe you just want to play as much softball as you can!
Season runs from June 21st through August 5th, Mondays through Thursdays
14-game schedule (7 home and 7 away)
Away games are typically north and west of Boston (e.g. Concord, Sudbury, Reading, etc.)
Games start no earlier than 6:15 p.m., with some lighted games at 8 p.m.

Great opportunity to continue skill development in competitive game situations.
Contact Bill Hartranft at bhartranft1@gmail.com by May 21st to express interest or get more information. Once they know the interested player pool, they will assess how best to form teams at different age divisions given player counts and age constraints.
