Salem-Keizer Stars Softball

We aim to give these young female athletes a better softball/sporting experience through uplifting coaching methods, game time experience and team bonding. Our goal is to better prepare young women for school and life experiences by building confidence and providing a skill. Many of our participants have expressed interest in attending college. We aim to prepare these participants for the college experience and give them a better chance at obtaining scholarships to attend college.

Our strategy is to provide one on one coaching for participants which they would not receive in other programs. We also place our participants in a competitive softball environment to encourage their growth. This needs to be made affordable. Financial limitations of many of our participants makes this difficult to accomplish. By obtaining financial support from our donors we help to made opportunities available to them. We are building programs for all ages to provide opportunities for prolonged growth and player development.

At the current time we are capable of providing teams and sporting experience for three different age groups. We have multiple teams formed for the twelve year old age group. We have thirty nine youth participants at the current time. We believe we are capable of providing a positive sports experience for up to sixty participants.

This past fall we were able to complete a season of play with two teams. We have committed two whole additional teams to continue in the spring. Both fall teams had a winning record and we had a large number of participants from fall commit to continue in the spring. Adding two more teams has doubled our size and number of participants. This has been a huge accomplishment for us.
