Recreational (REC) Softball -

Our Recreation (REC) Softball Program is held during the spring and fall seasons for players in the 10U, 12U, 14U & 16U/18U (high school) age divisions.  Our REC teams play against other area leagues as well as our own teams and we stress player development and education on the fundamentals of the game.  No previous softball playing experience is necessary for joining a Red Raider rec team and all players are welcome. The spring season runs from April to June and the fall season from September through October. Every REC player receives a full uniform (jersey, shorts & socks). REC softball teams generally practice 1 day/week and games are generally played on Sat or Sun. Games and practices are played on local area fields and we make every attempt to put players on teams that practice in their home area, as well as pair them with their friends.  Understanding that the Washington DC area has young athletes that play multiple sports, we make every attempt possible to create our game schedules with other sports in mind. Our teams fill up very quickly - REGISTER EARLY.
