The Village of Palmetto Bay Parks & Recreation Department is hoping to restore an important part of its youth athletic program with the launch of the Bay City Fast Pitch Girls Recreational Softball League. Games will begin in March.
Parks & Recreation director Fanny Carmona is enthusiastic about the effort.
“We are trying to bring back girls recreational softball as we have seen a decline in participation in the past few years,” Carmona said. “This is in partnership with Perrine Baseball and Softball Association. We play games at both locations.”
The games will take place at Palmetto Bay Park, 17535 SW 95 Ave., and at Franjo Park, 20175 Franjo Road. Opening ceremonies are on Mar. 1.
Teams are open to players ages 6 to 14. No experience is necessary. All levels are welcome.
The fee for joining the league is $160 per player, which includes a minimum of 10 games, uniform, two instructional clinics, and trophies.
