Leagues by Age
Per USA Softball rules, MYS leagues are based on age. The age qualification is based on the player’s age on January 1, 2020. For example, a player who is 10 on January 1, 2020 will play in the 10U league even if she turns 11 later in the 2020 calendar year.
Age ranges by league:
- 15U: born between 1/1/04 - 12/31/06
- 12U: born between 1/1/07 - 12/31/08
- 10U: born between 1/1/09 - 12/31/10
- 8U: born between 1/1/11 - 12/31/13
