FLL All Stars Softball

Falmouth All Stars teams require high level players who can handle very fast pitchers, face scary situations, and work hard for the good of the team. Players must understand that they are all critical to the team, but that they might not get to play their preferred position if it isn't what's best for the team. The games are highly competitive and the talent is high. The purpose is to play our best as a team, to support our teammates, and to hone the skills that contribute to our spot on the All Stars Team. All Stars is not an opportunity to try new positions or to work on skills for positions your player will not be playing (for instance, outfielders will not be doing pitcher practice, etc.). 

​

With recent rule changes, all All Stars players need to be confident hitters, knowledgeable and aware base runners, and must be able to slide. 

 

Given the intricacies of building a strong team, the Softball All Stars teams first solicit interest using a sign-up form. From this players, teams are first formed by coach recommendation/selection. If there are remaining spots on a team, we will host a tryout in late May. The tryouts will be hosted by coaches and other board members as necessary, and selections will be announced via email. 

​

Remember, All Stars is a tournament team, so not everyone will be the right fit for the team, and they might not make it. There is no opportunity for a B team or a practice team, but coming to watch the games and support the team is just as fun! Not making the team one year definitely stinks, but it doesn't mean that you can't try again next year!

 

If your player is interested in All Stars, encourage them to start working towards that goal before the regular season even begins!
