Travel
The Girls Softball League of Westfield Travel Program is designed to provide a higher level of competition for the more avid and skilled players. Players develop confidence, skills, and teamwork while competing with similar teams in the NJ-area. The GSLW is a member of local travel leagues and over the past several years we have competed in and won tournaments across many age groups against other local towns. We have created balanced teams across each age group to support interest and growth. We achieve success through the dedication of our players, coaches and families. All GSLW teams foster an environment of positive self-esteem, team spirit and individual growth. Our primary goal is to prepare our players to become strong softball players through hard work, commitment and stronger competition. The objective is to build teams that are competitive and designed to help girls who are committed to softball maximize their abilities.
