2024 Indoor Winter Softball League
Sahlens Sports Park is happy to be once again hosting the Winter Indoor Softball League for 2024. This league was formed with the intention of accomplishing two things. One is to prepare your team for the upcoming season and two is for the girls to have fun.
John Raab will be running our Softball Leagues. We believe, over time, this endeavor will potentially make the caliber of our local teams better and more competitive nationally. This league is run by softball people, for softball people. We believe that all athletes deserve a place to play sports all year round and if our facility can provide the place in which to do that, then those athletes will achieve greater goals. We hope you’ll join us this Winter and we look forward to seeing you there!
If you have any questions regarding the Winter League you can contact us by e-mailing John Raab at jraab3@yahoo.com or calling 716-472-6703. Age divisions will be 10U through 18U.
