ASA Softball Comes to Eureka
For the first time in a long time, families living in Eureka won't have to drive all the way to Arcata this year for high-quality softball.
Beginning in March, Mad River Softball will offer a competitive league that is sanctioned by the Amateur Softball Association (ASA). For the last five years, Arcata has been the only place locally to offer such a program.
”We have been north of Eureka for a long time, and we thought that there is softball in Eureka, but it's mainly Little League,” said Dan Duncan, president of Mad River Softball and the commissioner of the ASA in Humboldt County. “But ASA is different. We have rules that are consistent with high school and college softball, so players who go through the program will be ready for higher development in the sport.”
Practices begin March 15 and you can register on-line at madrivergirlssoftball.org (also check the scoreboard page for on-site registrations).
For more information on the league, call 707-822-3575.
