Welcome to the Sandown 8U Softball Home Page

The 8U division gives girls a taste of a big yellow ball coming at them while being (coach pitched) underhand. If they've had a year at T-ball or 6U, we like to move the girls up in to 8U as early as 6 years old.
The rules are very relaxed and the games are shortened to just over an hour. The goal is to get the girls catching and throwing to a point that they feel both comfortable and safe while on the field. Basic game rules and fundamentals are established to give them a base to build on before moving up to 10U. All eight towns participate in a Jamboree to end the season. |
