2026/2027 will be the in its 4th season of offering our Accelerated Softball program. This program is geared to meet families in the middle of our current little league programs and a full travel/club experience. It is geared to be approximately 1/4-1/2 of a normal travel/club experience but still be a year round program in order to allow athletes more practice availability, more game experience and overall more reps which is so needed in our younger programs. If you have more questions about this program, please reach out to lakeeffectathletics@gmail.com. More information attached below as well.
For the 2026/2027 Season - tryouts will be on Monday June 29th from 5:30-7:30pm at Hamilton High School Varsity Field.
