| POPS Philosophy: To provide a safe, friendly, and fun environment to play competitive softball, for all levels of play. |
 Spring/Summer Wednesday, May 12th 9:00am Most games will start as 7 inning games. Except at Wantagh Park on Mondays & Bay Park on Fridays. They will be 9 innings. Once we get Oceanside HS & Bellmore JFK in late June, most games for the rest of the season & the playoffs will be 9 innings.
* If there is a chance of rain... Check back to this site at around 4-5pm. POPS is not informed a decision by every field until 4-5pm. If no updates are given after 5pm- Contact your manager, as they will be the 1st to be informed once the parks make decisions about the fields.
TBD = To Be Determined by the Parks. We have NO control over the availability of any field. This also means go to the park, if not updated by 6pm or later. The decision to play the game will be made at the field. ______________________________________________ Which Fields, What Days, What Times? Below is a list of fields we play on with the times of games on those fields. Note that adjustments to days/times may be made on occasion during the season.

The "No Tag" play is being eliminated and we are back to allowing run downs & tag plays. Hand shakes at the end of games are in order. Welcome back to the beginning of normalcy. Have fun out there and have another great season in POPS Softball. ________________________________________________ Thanks to all the POPS Managers and Directors, registration is complete. With over 560 players, 34 teams in 3 leagues, POPS Softball is officially full. * However, we are still taking additional players for the POPS waiting list, many of which we hope to get in. ___________________________________________________ This year POPS has expanded and will have 2 divisions in the 40+ & 60+ Over leagues, an A & B. In addition to 3 divisions in the 50+ league an A, B & C. Our season starts May 3rd. The schedules are now up on this website in a tab above. Then check in weekly for updates, scores, standing and schedules. ________________________________________________ As promised, due to the unusual amount of rainouts in 2019 a CREDIT was given for each team that did not play their allocated number of games during that season. The credit was distributed to each manager in 2021. The credit will only be given to returning players from 2019. Your manager will be informed of the credit given to each team and pass it onto you. _______________________________________________________ POPS SCHOLARSHIPS : POPS Softball is a league that allocates any additional monies raised or left over to help others. We do so with "scholarships" to kids going to college, to helping "families in need" come the holidays. If any POPS player has a kid who is graduating high school this year and going to college, they are eligible for a scholarship. To apply for this scholarship contact the "Commish" at commish@popsoftbal.com ________________________________________________ |
