If you do not see your question below please feel free to submit your question to our Registrar at registrar@tustingirlssoftball.com.

1) Where are games and practices located?

During the Spring Season, most home games are held at Columbus Tustin Park (CT) located at 14712 Prospect Avenue. Games could also be played at Tustin Sports Park or Veterans Sports Park. 8U-14U games will be played at CT or in adjacent cities such as Irvine or Newport Beach.  Practices are held at Columbus Tustin Park, Veterans Sports Park (VSP), or Tustin Sports Park (TSP).

2) How often will the girls practice? How often are games?

The number of practice sessions each week depends on the age division. 6U will practice one night a week with a weekly game on Saturday. Upper divisions typically practice twice a week until games start, then practice once a week from then on.  8u-14u games are twice a week: one weeknight game and one Saturday game. A practice schedule will become available in late January once teams are formed. Managers (head coaches) create their own practice schedules so we will not know when your practice is until your team is drafted.

3) Will there be any additional fees?

Each team usually collects a small amount of money at the start of the season to cover additional costs such as a team banner to display at games, team socks, hair bows, and the team party. This fee is usually about $60-$70 per player.

4) Can I request a buddy or a particular coach?

Yes. The 6U division is grouped geographically, by coach request, and buddy request. We try as much as possible to have girls play with their friends.

TGS cannot accept buddy or coach requests for 8U-14U. Team equality is our top priority. Coaches draft their own teams. With that said, please make your requests to registrar@tustingirlssoftball.com and we will notify coaches of those requests during the draft.

5) How are the 8U-14U teams formed?

8U though 14U will start the season with an on-field evaluation in early January. All girls go through the evaluation process which allows the league to rate the girls’ skill level. These evaluations allow for teams to be evenly drafted by our coaches. All registered players will be placed on a team. The drafting of teams takes place in mid-January and the coaches will contact their teams shortly thereafter.

6) What is provided in the league uniform?

The Spring Season uniform provided by the league consists of a team jersey and pants. Sample uniforms will be made available to be sure your player orders the right size. Team moms will provide more information after teams are formed.

7) What equipment is needed?

The basic items your player needs are:

• cleats (soccer cleats are acceptable in the younger age divisions)

• helmet with an USA Softball approved face cage and chin strap

• USA Softball approved bat

• softball glove 

*Fielding face masks are highly recommended for pitchers and infielders.

The helmet can be purchased at any sporting goods store. The helmet must be worn while the batter is on deck, batting, or running the bases. The bat should come up to the child’s waist when placed on the ground next to the leg. To determine the weight of the bat, the child should be able to hold it parallel to the ground in one hand without much effort. The bat must be printed with the ASA or USA Softball approval. A glove should be able to close around the size of the ball used in the age division in which they play. The 6U and 8U Divisions use a 10” yellow ball. The 10U Division uses an 11” yellow ball. The 12U and 14U Divisions use a 12” yellow ball.

8) Can my daughter “play up”? 

Girls are typically placed in the division which represents their current school year, however, sometimes adjustments are made to play up or play down based upon safety concerns. The TGS Executive Board must approve any change in playing division and has the final decision. We recommend consulting president@tustingirlssfotball.com when deciding the best division for your player.  

9) What if I can't afford the fees for my daughter to play?

TGS offers a limited number of scholarships for financial hardships which are rewarded in order of receipt. Please review the scholarship application to see if you qualify. Completed applications should be emailed to registrar@tustingirlssoftball.com for consideration. Those awarded scholarships will be required to complete additional volunteer hours during the season. 

10) Does TGS offer a sibling discount?

TGS does offer a sibling discount. Our online registration system will automatically discount 10% off any additional siblings registered during the same transaction. Please contact registrar@tustingirlssoftball.com should you experience any issues.

11) Will I have to fund raise?

Yes. Our registration fees do not cover our annual operating expenses. This makes fundraising a critical component to our league's continued success. Every family is required to fundraise.

12) What is the TGS Refund Policy?

We understand that there are unforeseen circumstances which may lead you to decide to withdraw your player registration. Please keep in mind that this decision not only impacts the league financially, but it also affects team balancing and formation.

Players have until January 9th to request a refund. TGS will charge a $25 administrative fee. There are NO REFUNDS after January 9th.

13) What is the volunteer commitment?

We value our volunteers and depend on them to create the incredible TGS environment we hold so dear. Whether you volunteer your time coaching, prepping fields, being a team mom, or working the snack bar... YOU make a difference in our league. Each family must complete four (4) volunteer points per player, up to two players.
