Dear Softball Families,

Registration for Issaquah Fast Pitch is open and ready!

We had a group of girls that just finished playing Softball Fall Ball, and before that we played Summer Softball! This was the first year that our league participated in softball beyond the regular Spring Season! They had a great experience and the girls made tremendous strides on their softball skills (and had lots of laughs too)!

1. Our uniforms and team names reflect the Pac 12 College Softball teams instead of MLB Baseball. The teams are: Huskies, Cougars, Ducks, Wildcats, Sun Devils, and Golden Bears.
2. We have our own softball skills development clinics separate from ILL Baseball's Extra Base's training program. This year we are giving it an official name…"Softball Skills & Diamond Drills".
3. Indoor winter skills training schedule will start in January 2013. We will focus on the most current softball methods of throwing, catching, hitting, and running bases. For those interested in learning or improving pitching and catching skills we will offer that as well. Some of our skill clinics will have the head coach and players from Bellevue College Softball team as instructors. The head coach and assistant coaches at Bellevue College are Husky Fast Pitch alumni!
4. All softball players are invited to attend UW Huskies Little League Day game. Game day is usually mid-March.
5. Last season Issaquah hosted 1 All Star team for the 9/10 year olds. Issaquah had 8 players and Sammamish added 4 to make one team. For the first time in many years, the Issaquah 9/10 year old's placed 2nd in the District! Played 6 games in 8 days! The goal this year is to have one complete Issaquah team in at least one age category. Maybe 1st in District?
