Softball is an inclusive team sport and the MWSA competition has a grade and team to cater for every player.
Ages 3+ : Blastball | This is a free program for preschoolers which introduces the basics of softball (fielding, catching, throwing, batting and running) to young children. No complex rules, no teams and no personal equipment required. |
Ages 5+: Teeball | Building on blastball, teams are formed for girls and boys to continue learning this fun sport. Batters hit off a Tee. There is no live pitching. |
Ages 10+: Modball | A bridge between Teeball and Softball, with modified rules. Live pitching is introduced however a Tee will still be used if there has been no hit off the live pitch. |
Ages 12+/women: Softball | From 12+ the full regulation format of softball is played. |
Social: Slow Pitch | A slower pitch version of softball is played on a Friday evening providing opportunities for ladies to learn softball skills in a social setting during the week. Mixed formats are also played from time to time, allowing the whole family to join in. |
