Spring | Grades 7-8 Seniors
The Grades 7-8 Senior Division runs from early April through mid-June. Most regular softball rules apply. Umpires call balls and strikes. The league makes every attempt to keep roster size to no more than 13 players to allow plenty of playing time for all.
Eligibility
Player is a resident of Milton or attends school in Milton.
Player is enrolled in Grade 7 or 8.
Format
All players will be drafted onto teams in the Senior Division. The league wants to ensure that we have competitive balance across all teams. One of the ways we can accomplish this is by making sure each team as an equal amount of 7th and 8th graders.
Games
Typically 2 games per week. The schedule usually includes games on Saturday afternoons and Wednesdays @ 6PM. Expectation is that players will make at least 75% of all games.
Practices
1x practice per week. Coaches will also schedule practices before the season.
Playoff Format
For the last few years, we have done a double elimination playoff format.
Jerseys
Jerseys are provided and handed out prior to the first game.
