Softball is a sport that can be enjoyed by everyone, starting as young as 4 years old...
Home Run Heroes (aged 4-10) Participants play T-Ball and modified softball games in a fun and friendly setting. The sessions run for 1 hour over 6 - 8 weeks – with the emphasis being on teamwork and game play.
Modified Softball is for graduates of the tee ball program, and is recommended for 10-12 year olds. It is part of the local association competitions where children play organised games as part of a club team.
Junior Softball – your child will now transition to teams within your club and association. They are now part of the pathway to a lifelong love of softball, making new friends and keeping active.
Senior Softball - 16 softball associations operate across Victoria where young and old can have fun, forge new friendships and take the game to whatever level you aspire to.
High Performance - Junior and Senior Softballers have multiple opportunities to try out to represent at Association, State or National level.
- State Championships (represent your Association)
- National Championships (represent your State)
- TeamVic (Represent your state as part of the School Sport Victoria program in the 12 U or 18U age group)
- Along with other opportunities throughout the year such as the Softball Victoria's School Holiday Softball Program or Junior Development Program - for juniors who would like to work on their skills during the off-season.
For more information on any of these programs please contact Participation Coordinators, Tim Hatzi, Danielle Rigg or Jo Schutt via the contact details below:
