AGSA Winter Softball
|
 |
| Indoors--YEAH ! |
- 10 and under (born on or after Jan. 1, 2001)- Coach Steven Apsel - sapsel@yahoo.com
or Coach Bob Hutchinson- RobertHutchison@deltek.com
- 12 and under- (born on or after Jan. 1, 1999)-Coach Jeff George-4vageorges@gmail.com
- 14 and under- (born on or after Jan. 1, 1997) Coach Henry Dunbar- htdunbar@msn.com
- 16 and Under-(born on or after Jan. 1, 1995) Coach Angie Tyson - coachtyson@gmail.com
Note: The age of a player for travel ball is calculated using Jan. 1st as the basis for age determination. So, whatever age your daughter is on Jan 1, 2012 will determine the youngest team that she is eligible to play on for the entire year.
For example, if a girl is born on Feb. 3, 2001, she is still 10 years old on Jan. 1, 2012 and is eligible to play on a 10 & under team all year, even though she will turn 11 in February.
