IMPORTANT NOTE Effective September 1, 2023, USA Softball changed the birth year classification for each age division.  North Shore is affording those players in 10U and 12U born between September 1 and December 31, who have completed 2 years in their current age division, the choice to remain in the same age division (for a third year), or move up to the next age division for the Spring Recreation season, if desired.  If the player elects to move up to the next age division for the Spring Recreational season, the player may elect to play Tide/All-Stars at EITHER AGE division.  All elections (Spring, Tide/All-Stars) must be confirmed at tryouts on January 6, 2026 or the subsequent make up date and will be effective through August 31, 2026. 

We will offer the annual North Shore Softball Clinic for Divisions 8U to 12U in January, registration link to follow once the date and details are finalized.

The North Shore Executive Board by majority vote reserves the right to decline a player / parent / family registration.  In the event a registration is denied, the registration fee will be refunded.
