2008 Pitching Clinic

Our 2008 pitching clinic will be for players attending 1st through 6th grades. The clinic will be taught by a professional instructor and will consist of three one hour group sessions. The sessions will take place on April 13, 20, and 27. Each player must supply a catcher. If the catcher is under 18 years old, they must wear a helmet with face mask.

Space is limited so pre-registration is required. The fee for the clinic is $25 per player. To register, mail a check made out to "Denville PAL Girls Softball" to: Girls Softball; 11 Union Hill Road; Denville, NJ 07834. Indicate "Pitching Clinic" on the memo line. Registration confirmation will be posted on our website (www.denvillesoftball.org) as registrations are received.

New Face Mask Requirement in 2008

Face masks on batting helmets will be required for all players from the 1st grade through high school beginning in 2008. As in previous years, team helmets will be available for players to use. Each of the team helmets will be equipped with a face mask. If your daughter prefers to use her own helmet, it must be equipped with a face mask. If she already has a helmet that is not equipped with a face mask, a mask can be purchased and added to the helmet.

2008 8U Blue Devils Travel Team

2007 was our first year with an 8U travel team. As was the case in 2007, we will hold tryouts for the 2008 8U Denville Blue Devils in the early spring. Tryouts will be open to players participating in the Denville PAL Girls Softball Recreation League in the 2008 Spring season who were born during 1999 or later. Players who make the team will continue to participate in the recreation league during the spring and may also have periodic practices with the 8U team. Game play for the 8U travel team will begin in June and will run through the end of July.
