Rec Cancelled 5/5

By HGS 05/05/2021, 2:00pm EDT

Due to the rain and field conditions, Rec tonight (5/5) is cancelled. Looking forward to better weather on Saturday!

Parents, we had a great opening day on Saturday and look forward to a great rec season. Rosters and schedules are being finalized and team coaches will be reaching out to parents directly soon with additional schedule information.

As a reminder Rec will be Saturdays and Wednesdays. Saturdays will begin with warmup/practice at 10 and games at 11 unless otherwise directed by your coach. Wednesdays will begin with warmup/practice at 5:30 and games at 6:15. Please watch for additional schedule information from coaches soon about game location as some games will be in nearby towns as well.

We are hoping to have Rec this Wednesday 5/5 as scheduled but weather is a concern right now as the fields are already pretty wet from rain and there's more expected Wednesday.

Plan to arrive Wednesday around 5:30 for warmups. Scrimmages start around 6:15.

We will email and post to our Facebook by 5pm if we need to cancel due to rain. Thanks for your patience as we finalize rosters with coaches.

Spring Rec League Update

By HGS 04/22/2021, 7:30pm EDT

We're very excited for the beginning of our rec program. Opening Day for all levels is Saturday May 1st @ 11am. Please plan to arrive a little early to find a spot.

The address for our fields is 12 Woodin Rd. Clifton Park, NY 12065

After a short opening ceremony players will be split into age groups and practice basic skills. We plan to follow that with a scrimmage format.

After opening day teams will be assigned to a coach and schedules will be set. Plan to play Saturday mornings and Wednesday evenings at all levels but there may be adjustments for rain dates. We plan to play through mid-June and have 8-10 games per age level.

Thank you to all who have offered to help out with coaching. We have coaches for most levels but could still use help at the 10u and 12u levels. We anticipate having 8u (coach pitch), 10u, and 12u levels based on our registrations. Players will be generally placed by age level but adjustments can be made based on ability levels as well.

Each player will receive a Halfmoon Softball t-shirt for play. Players can play in sneakers or plastic cleats (No metal cleats). Softball pants are also recommended but not required.

For equipment, please plan to have a bat and batting helmet as well as a fielding glove. Softball fielding masks are also strongly recommended. Due to COVID-19 sharing of equipment is not allowed. The league may have some extra batting helmets and bats for anyone who is unable to obtain one. If you need any equipment, Sievert's Sports in Halfmoon is well stocked with softball equipment. Please let them know you're playing for Halfmoon Softball as we'd like to show them our support.

Please review our COVID-19 safety guidelines on our website. Please review these carefully and follow these guidelines to ensure everyone's safety.

If you have any questions prior to Opening Day please reach out to us at halfmoongirlssoftball@gmail.com

We will post weather related cancellations to our Facebook page throughout the season. Please follow us on Facebook to stay up to date as well.
