LET'S GET READY FOR Spring 2024!!

Playing up or down a division is an option, and during registration you have the opportunity to indicate interest in doing so. For details on criteria for allowing players to play up or down, please refer to our Rules & Regulations.

Manager Selection: All managers and coaches are recruited and procured by the GFSO Coaches and Managers agent. Recommendations are brought to the GFSO Board of Directors and are put to a vote for approval. If we expect to have more teams than we have Managers, additional Managers will be recruited. All volunteers are required to have a background checks and complete SafeSport training. In addition, volunteers may also be required to complete concussion training. For more detailed information about Manager selection, please refer to our Rules & Regulations. 

Team Formation: Players in 8U-14U divisions attend player assessments and are given a skills score that is used to help ensure the distribution of talent across all teams. Approved Managers participate in a draft to choose their teams. Teams are reviewed by our Player Agent and Division representative for balanced talent. If necessary, trades will be arranged to ensure balanced talent across all teams. Once teams have been finalized, rosters are reviewed by the board and voted for approval. For more detailed information about the draft, please refer to our Rules & Regulations. 

Note: Rookies teams are not drafted as we do not assess this division. Rookies teams are formed by the Player Agent and Division Representative, with input from the Managers. We will do our best to honor any friend requests and place players on teams with players from the same school.

Practices: Initially practices will be two times per week and will drop to once a week when games start. Practice start times vary with times as early as 5:00 PM and as late as 9:00 PM with Rookies/8U/10U divisions having earlier practices and 12U/14U divisions with later practices. Practices will be held at Luiseño Park in Oceanside

Games: Games will be held two times per week. One game during the week and one on Saturdays. Similar to practices, weekday game times are as early as 5:00 PM and as late as 9:00 PM; Saturday game times are as early as 8:00 AM. 

• 8U, 10U, 12U, and 14U divisions may interleague with other local leagues.

• *Please note, players are limited to 4 softball encounters weekly. At the very most, this could potentially be 3 practices and 1 game, or 2 practices and 2 games within a weekly period.

Practice/Game Schedule Requests: We are not able to accommodate requests for practice and/or game day or times. We are subject to field allocation, amount of teams and the availability of our volunteer Managers and coaches. 

Other Requests: If you have a request to accommodate any unique circumstances that would enable your daughter to play, please email [email protected]
