Mission

The Ames Girls Softball Association tournament team program shall be open to any age eligible girl from Ames or surrounding areas. The purpose of the AGSA tournament teams program is to develop the skills and knowledge necessary for girls to play softball at the next level in a competitive atmosphere; give girls the opportunity to develop self confidence, leadership skills and self respect through the game of softball; to promote good sportsmanship for all involved; to help girls learn to succeed as a team through respect of coaches, players and other participants, and to develop a love for the game of softball to the high school level and beyond.

General Information

In addition to our recreational league, AGSA sponsors traveling tournament teams in the 10 & Under, 12 & Under and 14 & Under age divisions. Placement on these teams is through a competitive tryout process. During tryouts, only players, evaluators and facilitators are allowed to be present. Parents may observe from a distance. Evaluators are qualified individuals with no children involved in the tryouts. In order to be eligible for 12 & under and 14 & under you must attend one tryout, and must participate in a local recreational softball league/middle school team. In order to be eligible for 10 & under you must participate in a local recreational softball league/school team and attend one tryout. Financial aid is available for those who need assistance. Parents are invited to attend a brief informational meeting during tryouts. Information regarding the selection process and requirements will be discussed. We would like to take this opportunity to answer any questions. A tentative tournament schedule will be presented and discussed with you at this time.
