Melrose Youth Softball (MYS) is dedicated to teaching softball while emphasizing teamwork, sportsmanship, and self-respect. We support the Melrose community by providing:

• Leagues for players in pre-kindergarten (Tee Ball) through 8th grade

• The primary season is the Spring but we also offer travel leagues in the Summer and Fall

• Skills clinics for multiple age groups

• Opportunities for kids and adults to coach, umpire, and support player development

MYS is an all volunteer organization based in Melrose, Massachusetts.  There are many ways for parents and caregivers to support our league:  coaching, event planning, working with sponsors, communications / social media, administrative support, etc.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can support MYS, email us at president@melroseyouthsoftball.com.  Thanks!

We play in the Middle Essex League which is affiliated with USA Softball of MA

• Games are played on Saturdays.  The Regular season starts on Sept 7 and will end in late October.
• Each Saturday is a double header.  The game schedule is expected to be released in early September.
• Coaches will schedule practice during the season, likely 1-2 per week, but that is still TBD
• We play teams in the surrounding area like Burlington, Woburn, Medford, Wilmington, etc.
• While this is not intended to be a league for "All Star" or Club teams, the games and players are very competitive
