How are coaches chosen?

Coaches must fill out an application online (see volunteer tab for further instructions). The board will then select coaches based on prior experience, background check and league needs.

Beginning for the fall 2025 season, in addition to a background check, coaches will be required to take Safe Stars training before practices begin.

How are teams selected?

During the fall season an evaluation will be performed and a draft done to select teams. For the spring season, we plan to keep teams together from the fall as much as possible. In the spring, new players will be assigned to an existing team based on years of experience and needs of existing teams. We will keep siblings together on the same team, but please note that in the registration form.

When will the teams be picked?

Teams will be assigned by July 21st

At what age do kids start pitching?

Kid pitch begins in 10U. 6U is a combination of coach pitch/tee and 8U is coach pitch only. 

Within what age group should my child play?

The age your child was as of August 31st, 2025 should be used in determining the division in which they should play. The online registration will automatically assign your child to the correct age division. No one is permitted to "play down," but you may opt for your child to "play up" should they desire a more competitive level. In order to play in an older age division, you will need to notate this request on your registration and the request will be evaluated by the board. For spring season, they will remain in the same age group as they were for fall season. 

Where are the practices held?

All practices will be held at Nolensville Park field #1 or the one of the two rec fields behind the historic school next to the rec center. 

Where are the games played?

Games are played throughout the county.  Games are spread out between Nolensville Park, Fly Park, Bethesda Park, College Grove Park, Brentwood Crocket Park, and Grassland Park.

Directions to most fields can be found here: DIRECTIONS TO FIELDS

Are practices and games held on Wednesday’s, Friday’s and Sunday’s?

Regular season games are typically not scheduled on Wednesdays, Fridays, or Sundays. Rainout games may be made up on these days as needed. Practices, however, may need to be scheduled on these days due to limited field space.

What equipment does my child need?

Your child will need to have a glove, cleats, softball bat, batting helmet (with facemask) and a fielders mask.  All of this can be purchased used from Play It Again Sports or new from Dick's Sporting Goods (see coupon tab), Academy Sports, Target, Walmart, etc. The league will provide each player with a uniform top, pants, belt (8U and up) and socks. The league will also provide each head coach with team equipment. Please make sure your daughter has a softball bat and not a baseball bat.

***Pitchers are strongly encouraged to wear a chest protector padded compression shirt under their uniform.
