The Humble Girls Softball League (HGSL) is a Fastpitch Softball League
 dedicated to teaching girls ages 5 - 16 the fundamentals of softball
 coupled with good sportsmanship in a fun atmosphere. 

HGSL has two types of programs:  Recreational League (includes Summer All-Stars)
and Select or Traveling/Tournament Teams (Humble Cobras).
You will find information on both within this web site. 

Linked below (2008 Fall Season Information) is the Practice schedule for both Sat & weekdays.  The batting cages still do not have power. The electrician is expected out this next week, so please do not use them until this message is updated they are available. 

REMINDER:  Field 4 is completely off limits to everyone.  Please stay off of it & help us to keep others off if you see them on it. 

Thanks to everyone for being understanding during the delay and re-scheduling of our Fall Softball Season.  We are excited to be able to continue with our Fall Season, but will need everyone's help and cooperation to get through it with our required field sharing.  We're doing the best we can with our reduced resources.  Practices started at the fields Oct 4th and the start of the Fall 2008 season games will be on Sat, Oct 18th.  The practice schedule is now posted on the web site in the Handouts & Forms section; Fall Season Information.   

Field Status (we'll only have 3 fields this season):

• Field 3:  can be used; no lights
• Field 4:  off limits to everyone due to unsafe backstop
• Field 5:  can be used; lights working currently
• Field 6:  can be used; lights working currently

Please help us to keep everyone off of field 4.  If you see children playing on field #4, please ask them to get off.  It (the backstop) is an unsafe area and we must keep everyone off of it. 

Below is a summary of this season's key dates.  Depending on rainouts or other reschedules, we may need to add additional weekday game play dates, but other than that, this is the schedule we will do our best to stick with.  The Game Schedule will be published soon.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL TEAMS!!!

One positive thing you'll notice at the fields this fall is our concession stand improvements.  Just before Ike visited, we had started our concession renovation project.  Although it has been delayed, we're expecting it to be complete by Oct 18th with all new electrical wiring, counters, cabinets, some new equipment and other improvements you'll see once it opens up.  We're happy to see this capital project getting done!!

See you at the fields,
Your Humble Girls Softball Board of Directors
