EYAA Softball  

Welcome to EYAA softball. We will begin 2021 chartered under the Capital Area Babe Ruth Softball League which is governed by Babe Ruth League structure and rules. The league also includes the communities of Concord, Penacook, Hopkinton, Bow, Hooksett, Chichester and Suncook.  

Our recreational programs focus on player skill development while teaching good sportsmanship. The season begins in April and runs through the end of June. Teams typically have a game and practice during the week and a game on Saturday.  

Feel free to contact our EYAA Softball commissioner at [email protected] with any questions.

Programs:

U8: Players will learn in this developmental program designed for instructional play in a fun and engaging environment. Pitching will be done by a mechanical pitching machine and instruct play with teachable moments.

U10: This program builds upon the foundation of the U8 program and begins to incorporate game specific skills such as live player pitching and base stealing.

U12, U14 and U16: These programs cater to older players and look to support and build upon the fundamental skills gained at the younger levels, while incorporating competitive game strategy and full field play at a faster pace. 

** With player safety and well-being in mind, players can play up an age division based on individual skills and comfort level with the game. This is the sole discretion of the Softball Commissioner. In certain circumstances players are allowed to play down a division if they have yet to gain the skills to compete safely in a division. This situation requires approval from the League board**
