Girls in Grades K-8 who want to play softball are encouraged to join the Boxford Softball Program. The program's main emphasis is to foster a strong and supportive team environment where everyone can flourish. Not only will coaches help develop each player's skills, but also promote each girl's self-esteem and self-confidence. While we want to be competitive in each game, it is much more important that your daughter graduates the program happy and confident in her abilities, not only in softball but any field.

The BAA participates in the USA Softball League. The league is comprised of teams from 15 towns across the North Shore.  The league philosophy is a recreational and development, however the older grades get increasingly more competitive.  There are five age-based groups:

18U - players must be 18 years or younger on 9/1/2025
14U - players must be 14 years or younger on 9/1/2025
12U - players must be 12 years or younger on 9/1/2025
10U - players must be 10 years or younger on 9/1/2025
8U - players must be 8 years or younger on 9/1/2025

The Regular season starts the week of April 27th and ends mid June.  Playoffs will start June 9th with the finals scheduled for June 22nd.

Upcoming Player Evaluations and Development: 

Stay tuned for upcoming announcements regarding player evaluations, which will be essential in determining team placements for the upcoming season. These evaluations are designed to assess each player's skills and potential, ensuring that everyone is placed on a team that aligns with their abilities and promotes growth.

In addition to team placements, we will also be releasing dates for a variety of player development activities and training sessions. These programs are tailored to enhance individual skills, foster teamwork, and improve overall performance, providing players with the tools they need to succeed both on and off the field. Keep an eye on our communications for the latest updates and ensure you don't miss out on these valuable opportunities for development and growth.

We recommend that you consider purchasing slide shorts and a slide pad. Sliding is part of the game and we expect the girls to get in under the tag. The pads make it less painful and help prevent scrapes and bruises.

Although we have batting helmets available, if you are planning on buying your own, helmets with a face mask are required.

If your daughter is new to the game, consider a face mask.  Most of the girls purchase a mask as protection against a bad hop.  If you are thinking about pitching, it is an absolute must.  

On the list of good ideas for equipment are cleats, batting gloves, and of course a fielding glove.  Many of the Sr. girls have purchased their own bat. Bats are a larger investment as they can easily run up to $350.00.  These should be considered only for the most serious players.  We have plenty of good bats available for different size players. 

If you are not sure about the best glove or bat, ask one of the coaches.   We can help you find a quality glove that will work well and help them catch the ball effectively.  

This season we will be providing jerseys and socks for each player.    Each player should wear black pants.  You can order through Team & League, but they are not custom so you can purchase them elsewhere.  

Visors are custom but are OPTIONAL and can be ordered through Team & League Outfitters.

Our vendor is Team & League Outfitters in Georgetown:
Hours: Mon - Fri 11am-6pm, Sat 8am-Noon. No appt. necessary.

If you have any questions about sizes, you can either text or email Jen.  Team & League Outfitters info:
