This is a great idea!! If we don't take advantage of this opportunity, then shame on us, the parents and coaches.

Sounds like it is organized, we just need to put a team together and play.

If you were going to have a junior league team, this would be a good way to get a jump on the competition.

17 to 20 Jr. High game and then 12 Jr. league games = around 32 games before the all-stars = advancement to the next level. Think about it!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a good group of teams, I know East has had jr high softball for I believe 3 years now could be a year off either way. Also gets these kids time to play with each other before they get the high school level where they could be spread out all over the summer having to play in different little league groups such as Burg,NewVille, Webster, Portsmouth, ect.
