Summer Travel
The Summer Travel Program runs from June through early August. This program is for girls ages 9-19 who are interested in playing softball at a higher level. Where the summer house league is recreational in nature, the Summer Travel Program is a commitment.

Commitment
Playing time is not balanced and the commitment to the Milton Summer Travel Program cannot be taken lightly. It is expected that girls will be able to attend most if not all of the practices and games.
Games
The 10-game season includes 5 road games throughout the South Shore. Games times are typically 6pm or 8pm on weeknights.
Games are held Monday through Thursday (typically two games per week). Weekends are game/practice free with the exception of a makeup game or practice.
Conference Play
Milton Girls Softball has a history of participating in the South Shore Softball League (SSSL). The numbers vary year to year but typically we have had 2 teams in each age group.
Practices
Practices start in early June.
Teams practice 2 times per week.
Uniforms
Uniform orders are placed during registration. This includes a jersey, pants, socks, compression shorts, and a belt.
Extra Costs
Teams may discuss entering a tournament or two. The tournament fees vary but typically ~$50 per player per tournament.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Summer Travel Program have tryouts and cuts?
Yes, we have tryouts for summer travel in May. We often have to make cuts but this is based on the number of girls trying out and the number of teams we can support at each age level.
Finances are tight. Do you offer any financial assistance?
Milton Girls Softball believes that every girl who is interested in playing should be able to play. If you have financial circumstances that make the registration fees a challenge, please reach out to Noreen Dolan from the Milton Resident & Parish Member Funds at 617-696-1214 or Miltonresidentsfund@gmail.com. We have a strong partnership with the Milton Resident & Parish Member Funds while keeping your circumstances private.
