Click here for the 2024 USA Softball age chart. (IMPORTANT UPDATE 7/15/23: USA Softball age chart is CHANGING on September 1, 2023. Girls born on or between August 1 and December 31 are affected and will be repeating their division, unless they request and are granted permission to play up.)

5U

5U is the “t-ball” division and is for girls born on September 1, 2017 and August 31, 2018. The registration price includes a jersey with your girl’s name and number, socks, USA player and adult background check fees, equipment provided to coaches, photograph, clinics for the girls, training for the volunteer coaches, and field maintenance.

5U teams typically have 8-10 players, with one field practice and one game per week from early September to mid-November (Fall) and from late January through early May (Spring). Score is not kept in games, and there are no umpires. The games are played only off the tee for the first few games, then coach pitch is allowed later in the season. There is no umpire in 5U, and games/practices may be held on turf or grass depending on field availability.

6U

6U is for girls born between September 1, 2016 and August 31, 2017.

There will be girl pitching and outs, but the count will be modified to begin at 1-1 and the girls will be limited to one inning as pitcher per game. A coach will be allowed behind home plate to help return wild pitches quickly.
