SPRING SEASON (2025)

2025 Spring Registration is CLOSED!

 

 


Why Play in Spring?

The CSA spring season is always an exciting time to play softball among close friends. It's our most popular season and a great opportunity for players to continue to build on their skills and experience.  While there is significant focus on fundamental skills, the season remains competitively fun with intra-league games playing other teams involved in the league.

Who is eligible?

CSA is forming  6U, 8U, 10U, 12U and 14U teams.

Play up requests 

Please register your daughter with her correct birthdate in the correct division.  Requests to play up must be submitted via email the 2025 Play Up Request Form.

Division Birth Year

Your daughter's division of play is determined by birth years as follows:

  • 6U: September 1, 2017- 2019
  • 8U: September 1, 2015- August 31, 2017
  • 10U: September 1, 2013- August 31, 2015
  • 12U: September 1, 2011- August 31, 2013

USA Softball makes the rules for all leagues and a good breakdown of the age divisions can be found here:  https://www.usasoftballdfw.com/player-age-class

 

FRIEND REQUESTS

All friend requests must be submitted via the 2025 Friend Request Form

While we make every effort to place friends who request each other on the same team, friend requests are NOT guaranteed. Spring teams are formed through a manager-drafted selection based on player assessments. This draft ensures teams are balanced, for a fun and fulfilling experience for all players. After the draft has completed and all players have been placed on a team, friend requests might be accepted as trades between managers. Please note that as girls progress into older Divisions, friend requests become more difficult to accommodate.

What is the Cost?

Spring season for 8U, 10U, 12U and 14U will cost $195.00 per player. The cost for our 6U program is $95.00 per player.  There is a $10.00 sibling discount.  At checkout, be sure to use the promo code SISTERS.  The cost includes a jersey and socks as well as umpire fees and practice field lights.  Residents outside of Carlsbad will incur an additional $5.00 fee.
