Welcome to CYA Softball

CYA Softball Program

The CYA House Softball League operates during the Spring (March-June) and Fall (September-November) seasons. Teams engage in internal competitions and also face off against other leagues in the area. The primary aim of the CYA house program is to provide girls with the chance to participate in team sports. The league prioritizes values such as good sportsmanship, respect, and teamwork. In house league matches, all girls get to play regardless of their skill level.
