The first official practice of girls softball for third through eighth grade will be on March 25 at the Buck Park softball field.  Practice that week will take place from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday.

Practice days will be finalized following the first week of practice. There are no try-outs and no experience is required.

The season is already shaping up to be a good one with games on Lopez, San Juan and even Shaw Island, say organizers.
