Requirements to participate on a Tournament Team

Hermantown Summer Softball Association’s Tournament team(s) are intended to offer girls the opportunity to play in more (outside of their recreational league) competitive tournaments around Minnesota. Playing time will not be equal however, girls will get into the game regularly. For all tournament teams, it’s strongly encouraged by HSSA that there is rostered hitting (everyone on the team hits) and girls do not sit on the bench more than 2 consecutive innings (unless injured or other factors agreed upon with parents and coaches). This suggestion is based on sports psychologists and coaching literature to support the mental and physical development of young athletes.
