SOMERSET SENIOR GIRLS SOFTBALL LEAGUE

     Welcome to the Somerset Senior Girls Softball League web site. The 2012 season will be our 37th year of offering competitive fastpitch softball for young ladies between the ages of 13-23. What started out as a 3 team league with no "home field" devolped into an 8 team league with a state of the art 3 field complex. The 2011 season saw the league drop to 5 teams due to a decrease in player participation, however we were able to support 4 travel teams; 1 in the 14-U Division , 1 in the 16-U Division and 2 in the 23-U division. 

  We are a league that never turns away any girl who has a desire to play organized softball. Over the 36 years that the league has been in existence we have watched womens softball develop into a major sport.

      Flash back to 1975 when Gordan and Sandy Brunt moved from the midwest to Somerset along with thier two daughters. As both girls were invovled in softball, in the midwest, one of thier concerns was if Somerset had a summer softball league. Not knowing if there was a league Gordan made a promise to his daughters that if there was not a softball league in town he would start one. A promise he kept.

       Along with his new neighbors; Kathy Sullivan, Del and Richard Blais and Barbara Sowden he formed the first ASA Junior Olympic Softball league in Somerset. Looking back to those days: there were no aluminum bats - yes the ladies used wooden bats, and no womens gloves, no dazzle type uniforms and no softball shorts either and the hockey style catchers mask would not make an appearance for another 20 years. I bet that more than half the girls showed up at that first tryout with a borrowed glove and a wooden bat that probably weighed more than they did. Their first uniforms were their father's and brother's dyed t-shirts.

      One thing is for sure over the last 36 years we have had many dedicated volunteers who have kept this league running, but mostly we have a lot of dedicated young ladies who have a lot of fun playing softball with their friends and making new ones along the way.

    We have added somethng new at the complex; along with the 2nd floor meeting room,  on the exsisting clubhouse, the league has dedicated the kitchen at the concession stand to the memory of IRMA ROBERTS ,our long time concession stand manager, who passed away earlier this year. Stop by and check it out if you have a chance. 

  Once again, Welcome to the  Somerset Senior Girls Softball League 2012 season. 

 Play hard between the white lines, but when its over "REMEMBER" it's just a game. 

   BE RESPECTFUL OF THE COACHES, PLAYERS, UMPIRES AND THE GAME ITSELF. 

      Enjoy the games - visit " IRMA'S KITCHEN", at the concession stand,  and say hello to  Ronnie- but above all be sure to enjoy the experience and "HAVE FUN".

Deepest Sympathy

It is with deep regret that we notify all our Somerset Senior Girls Softball League friends of the untimely passing of our friend and long time concession stand manager  Irma Roberts.  As many of us know Irma and her husband, Ronnie, were extremely dedicated members of this league for many, many years.  
 
Irma was a good friend to the league, the players, players parents  and umpires.
 
Her presence at the club house during league games and tournaments will be sorely missed by all who came in contact with her through the years.
 
Please keep Irma and her family in your prayers and thoughts through this difficult time.
