Foothill Flyers Select Program
The USA Softball of Sacramento Select (aka “B”) program is designed to create a more competitive environment for players to participate in while still remaining in a recreational league setting and without the expense of playing travel softball. This program will allow USA Softball Recreational leagues to form teams to represent their league on a year-round basis.
Each league will be eligible to put together Select teams at the beginning of the year to compete against the other Select teams formed by other leagues. This allows the league to retain the better players while keeping them in the recreational league. This in turn creates a higher base level of play in the recreational league and drives participation back to the rec program.
Foothill Girls Softball League will participate in the Select program with the intention of fielding teams at the 10U, 12U, and 14U level.
Player Eligibility:
- Players must be registered with Foothill Girls Softball League for the 2025 spring season to be eligible to try out for, or participate on, the Select program.
- All players must live or attend school within the approved boundaries of Foothill Girls Softball League.
- Any player that participates with any other team outside of their recreational league or Select Team during the recreational league season will forfeit their eligibility. This includes open workouts, practices, academy style classes at PS33 and other gyms, and subbing in games or tournaments.
- All players must participate in a tryout for their respective divisions to be held on TBD.
