2026 is off to a great start. Registration is complete, Uniforms were ordered and all players were Insured for liability. Every year I feel disappointment for those we were not able to get into POPS from a waiting list of over 150 players. We did however get over 70 players to join us. We were able to make 2 NEW teams for the 50+ league of ALL players from the waiting list, plus added another 35 players to fill rosters of other teams, allowing those teams to stay together.
Opening day for : 40+ Mon. May 4th, 70+ Tues,. May 5th, 60+ Wed. May 6th, 50+ Thurs. May 7th.

Its going to be an exciting year in POPS Softball. We have offically gotten our field permit for our home field "Oceanside HS" for this year, completly Turfed and Redesigned. The 70+ league will be starting in May and all other leagues will start sometime in June, after the 200' fences from the girls softball team come down. Opening day is Monday, May 4th.
______________________________________________________
"Registration" online produced almost 150 new players looking to join us. We will have 5 New teams playing in POPS this year thanks to adding Oceanside.. Over 40 new players added onto teams to fill rosters, plus two new teams made up of all players from our waiting list in the 50+ league.
