2021 Softball Registration
Registration for the 2021 Season Opens December 1
While we are disappointed by the absence of our regular Winter Training Program, we are excited to announce that registration for the 2021 Season will open on December 1. We are very confident that by spring we will be able to launch the season. Any additional safety precautions with regards to COVID 19 will be taken and will have to be adhered to by everyone but based on the success we had in the fall we believe there will be a way to run the 2021 Season in a way that is very close to normal.
Discounted pricing for 2021 will be in place from December 1 through January 16. Registration can be completed in person at The Pavilion (assuming it remains open) or online at https://www.elkgroveparks.org. Below are the divisions and pricing for 2021:
