New Players and Previous summer 8U players: (10U and up) is going to be required to purchase a brand new jersey ($25).  In future seasons this will be optional and if your jersey still fits and is in good shape you will not have to buy another one until you are ready.  

Returning players (10U and up): Please check your jersey. If it still fits and is in good shape, you do not need to order a new one. If you do not buy a jersey and later decide you need one after registration, a $50 fee will be charged in order to get a jersey made. 

We are using a proven system that allows odd and even numbers to go with odd and even birth years.  This works for the majority of our players to ensure there are no duplicate numbers on a team.   A number will be randomly assigned to your player and will be their number throughout all their seasons in RYFSA.  No sharing of jerseys as the number is assigned to the player. If a player does not wear their assigned jersey and their is a duplicate, the player not assigned to that number will be charged $50 in order to get a jersey made. 

All of the RYFSA teams are coached by volunteer coaches. It is important we get volunteers to help run RYFSA softball and coaches are one of the most important pieces to make seasons successful for these young ladies.  

At HS there will be 2 coaches if possible

Our HS coordinator is the contact person and can help you with questions.

Coaches can help a team succeed by:

1) Making sure the girls are having a blast.
2) Making sure the parents know when games and practices are, what your expectations are for what they wear and when they show up, and communicate any urgent messages like rainouts or schedule changes. 
3) Improve in their understanding and skills of softball.  We have a staff of board members, coaches, and committees ready to help with this part.  There will be a coaches meeting where we go over everything we can think of to make your job easier (April 23rd, more info to come).

All head coaches will need to be ACE certified, concussion trained, and background checked. Assistant coaches need to be concussion trained and background checked. This information and the links will be provided to you once teams are made from your age coordinators.
