Why Babe Ruth Softball?

Babe Ruth Softball is designed for girls ages five through eighteen. Age divisions currently offered in the Englewood program are 8 & Under, 10 & Under, 12 & Under, 14 & Under, and 16 & Under.

The primary emphasis of Babe Ruth Softball is on the local league season: education, skill development, participation for players at all levels of athletic ability, and to ensure the participants have FUN.

Babe Ruth Softball's structural hierarchy evolves from the very heart of the program: the local league. Local leagues are organized into Districts. Districts report to the State level. States are grouped into eight regions.

A highlight of Babe Ruth Softball is its annual tournament trail. Tournament teams from each local league are eligible to participate in District competition with winners advancing to the State and Regional levels. Eight regional champions from across the United States and Canada compete in each World Series.

Babe Ruth Softball intends for every child that has a desire to participate in the sport to be able to do so. Babe Ruth Softball is the fastest growing division in Babe Ruth League, Inc.
