FAQ

Who are we and what is our mission?
We are a non-profit, community-based recreational softball league for girls organized and managed entirely by parent volunteers for the benefit of our kids and our community. Participation in our league is open to children in the Eanes Independent School District and West Austin neighborhoods, as well as area private schools. Our mission is to provide a fun and safe environment for girls ages 5 to 18 to learn the basic skills and rules of the game. We encourage skill development, healthy competition, fair play, and good sportsmanship, and believe that every child is a valued member of the team.

What clothing/equipment does my child need?
Jerseys, caps or visors and socks will be provided by the league. Players will need to provide shorts. Sliding shorts and/or cleats are highly recommended for players in MUSTANG and above. All players will be required to have athletic shoes and a glove. The league provides bats and batting helmets. However, players are encouraged to use their own equipment.

How can you become a coach or assistant coach?
Anyone interested in coaching should indicate your interest when you register your child. The league performs background checks on all perspective coaches and assistant coaches. Please submit our Coaches Registration form.

How can you sponsor a team?
The cost to sponsor a team is $375 in Spring and $200 in Fall. There are numerous benefits to being a sponsor including having your name displayed on team jerseys and on the banner at Hatley Field. You will also receive prominent recognition on our league website, banner advertising and a link to your website. Please submit our Sponsor Registration form.

Concession Stand?
To help offset costs, the league runs the Concession Stand at Hatley Field. The Concession Stand added over $2,000 to our cash balance last year which equates to about $10 per child. Each team will be required to staff the Concession stand at least twice during the year. Coaches will be given the schedules. We also ask that no after game snacks be brought to the field. After each game, players may come to the concession stand for a free ice pop (Popsicle). Should parents wish to add to the free snack, additional items may be purchased.
