The purpose of the USCAA Girls’ Softball Program is to provide an opportunity for children of township residents to learn to play softball. The program’s emphasis is to create a “recreational” yet competitive environment in which the participants can learn the sportsmanship and skills necessary to play at a more advanced level while enjoying the fun of a team sport.
The USCAA will make every effort to provide the opportunity to all girls in the USC community to participate in games and to improve their skills.
January 1 is the cutoff date for all age groups. Players will be grouped in the following divisions based upon the player’s age on January 1 of the upcoming seasonal year:
- 6-8 year olds (Slow Pitch)
- 9-10 year olds (Fast and Slow Pitch)
- 11-12 year olds (Fast and Slow Pitch)
- 13-15 year olds (Fast and Slow Pitch)
- 16-18 year olds (Fast and Slow Pitch)
Children of current residents of Upper St. Clair are eligible to participate. In addition, children of families who can substantiate that they are moving into the township during the season are eligible to participate.
A reasonable degree of commitment is expected by each player. Players should keep in mind that the numbers of players per team has been structured to afford each girl optimum playing time. Failure to field an entire team may result in forfeiture of that game and a loss to the team as a whole. Consideration should be made to the rest of the team. It is expected that each player will notify her coach in the event of a necessary absence.
Registration is typically in the middle of January. Practices and games begin in April, depending on the weather. The recreation season ends mid to late June, usually coinciding with the end of the school year. Players enrolled in the recreation programs are eligible to try out for travel teams based on age eligibility. The travel program provides players who have advanced skills and abilities the opportunity to participate in a competitive environment. Players will be evaluated at tryout sessions and rosters are limited. Some players may not be placed on a travel team. The travel teams participate in tournaments throughout the month of July, which requires a strict time commitment from players and their families.
