|
The 2008 Plymouth-Canton Pride is a seventh-year travel fastpitch softball organization. The Pride organization and teams are located in the adjoining communities of Plymouth and Canton, Michigan--about 35 miles west of Detroit.
We are a community based organization. As part of the Greater Canton Youth Baseball and Softball Association (GCYBSA), girls that live within the Plymouth-Canton communities or attend ANY school in Plymouth-Canton including Public, Private, Charter and Home Schools are eligible to play for the Pride.
The mission of the Pride is to provide a multi-leveled program that provides a positive atmosphere where girls can acquire progressive training in the skills of Fast-Pitch Softball at all ages while creating a fun environment for girls - of all skill levels - to benefit from the travel team sport experience, and to prepare skilled and experienced players for high school and beyond.
With the Pride, you will play fast-pitch softball with girls of your own age and ability. Age groupings are: 10 and under; 12 and under; 14 and under; and 16 and under. For the 2008 season, teams are being fielded in each age group.
The Pride offers three levels of play: Western Wayne County Travel; Community Travel; and Premier Travel.
Levels of Play:
- Western Wayne County Travel - These Pride teams will play against similarly skilled teams within the Western Wayne County League that share a common goal; to develop fast-pitch softball skills while having fun. All players play at least two innings per game. One tournament and 14 league games comprise a typical schedule for this level of play. Cost is $250.
The Western Wayne County League will be entering its 13th year in the 2008 season. Members of this league are from the following communities: Plymouth/Canton, Garden City, Novi, Livonia, Farmington, Trenton, Allen Park, Riverview, Flat Rock, Ann Arbor, Taylor, Saline, Westland, Bellville, Wyandotte, and Dearborn. - Community Travel – These Pride teams compete with other travel softball teams from the Western Wayne County and the surrounding area. They play 14 games per year in the Western Wayne County League and may play in 2 to 3 tournaments in the Metro Detroit Area, resulting in about 30 games per year. Cost is $250 plus fundraising efforts.
- Premier Travel – These Pride teams endeavor to play and compete with the best teams in the Great Lakes region. We will play in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, and possibly qualify to play in the “World Series” in the first week of August. A Premier Travel team will play in 60-80 games per year, including indoor winter scrimmages and tournaments. You will compete with the best softball players in the Plymouth/Canton area to win a spot on a Premier Travel team. Cost is $350 plus fundraising efforts.
In 2008 the Pride will host teams in the 10U, 12U, 14U and 16U divisions.
In 2007 each of the Premier Travel Teams, U-10 Stars, U-12 Stars, U-14 Stars and U-16 Elite earned berths and competed in their World Series Tournaments.
