How to Administer an MSF League
The registration and administration of a MSF softball league is very simple. Follow the below step by step process:
- Attend a District Softball meeting and pick-up team membership materials.
All team membership materials (i.e. softball guides, rule books, tournament schedule books, etc.) are distributed to softball league directors at the Annual District Meetings held each spring. Team materials are supplied for the number of teams a sports community guarantees they will register. League directors are responsible for distribution of materials to teams participating in their sports community. League directors who cannot attend are asked to send a proxy. It is important that all leagues are represented.
Again this year softball meetings will be held in each district to encourage greater participation and more efficient dissemination of team membership materials. All meetings will be held on a weeknight so that members will not be required to tie up their weekend. Unless otherwise noted, adult softball meetings begin at 7:00pm and Junior Olympic meetings begin at 8:00pm.
Staff members from both the district and state office will be in attendance to answer your questions and highlight the MSF softball program.
