Salisbury Softball is divided into three divisions: 1 instructional  and 2 instructional but more competitive divisions.  
  
At registration, each player enrolling in our program will be placed into one of these divisions based on age.  Please keep in mind that SYA Softball uses a "sport eligibility date” of January 1 in determining the ages of girls that compete in our programs.  This means that the age of the girl on January 1 determines the age she will be considered for the coming Spring season.  In some instances, particularly in the competitive divisions, there are players which possess some exceptional skills and desire to "play up” in a higher division of play. This is allowable and requires some additional coordination with the division commissioners as well as a player evaluation to determine if this is appropriate.
