Please arrive half an hour earlier than stated time for warm-up.
When and where is training?
Training for junior teams is on Wednesday evenings from 5.30-7pm at Mill Park. It is optional for T-ballers. For U19 and Open teams, please contact the club to check training details.
What do I wear?
If you are trying softball, simply wear comfortable clothing such as T-shirt, shorts/trackies and trainers. Also please bring a cap.
T-Ballers: Uniform for T-Ballers is very relaxed. Members buy a club jersey and a club cap to play in, and then can wear their own shorts/trackies and trainers. Other clothing is available to buy, such as hoodies, shorts, pants etc, but is optional.
All other teams: Uniform includes:
Other items are optional, including:
Uniform is available to purchase on the club websites and can be collected from Mill Park.
Do I need any special equipment?
All playing equipment is available to borrow from the club, including bats, gloves and helmets, as well as catchers gear and other equipment. Over time, players tend to start to get their own equipment (eg bat, glove, helmet) but it's not required and the clubs have all of this equipment that can be borrowed and many do.
How do I choose a club?
We have two clubs within our association which offer T-ball, Junior and Senior softball: Cheetahs and Monarchs. Another club Rebels offers a womens senior team. Members can join any club, however T-Ballers and some of the junior age groups play together as one team.
We often get asked, how do I choose between Cheetahs and Monarchs? If kids have a friend who already plays, often they will want to join the same club. Or perhaps they make a friend when trying softball. Or feel free to take a look at the club websites or social media (see below) and choose one that seems to fit. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask the coaches.
