Although you will need to go through the evaluation process, I believe the fields are closed right now for maintenance. I think they start up again the first week of May.

The short of it is; you get evaluated at Buffalo Glen complex on Tuesdays at 8 am. you have to attend three. They then determine what division to belong in. I know Division 1 and 2 has already drafted. You can go and sign up as a sub on game days. If you are looking to get on a team, you are a priority sub and can be placed on a team if an injury occurs. The two leagues are neighborhood and recreation.Recreation is more competitive and use senior softball bats; ie. Miken, Reebok etc. Neighborhood uses aluminum bats, made from old beer cans left over from the square. Just as competitive but the recreation league is more intense with the better bats.
