14U Registration

2026 Spring Softball Registration - 14U


The 14u Division is a competitive division played under USA Softball for players with birthdates between September 2010 and December 31 2012. Teams play competitively in the West Shore Minors Fast Pitch League.

Players will be played more frequently at positions where they fit best from a skill development standpoint. Practices will continue to focus on fundamentals of the game such as hitting, bunting, fielding, and base running (including stealing and sliding), as well as proper throwing and catching mechanics, but will also focus on more advanced situational defense and offense. Emphasis during games is both player improvement as well as competitiveness.

Activities will generally be 2-3x's per week and may be held on any day, Monday-Friday. Games will generally be scheduled so that there is 1 home game and 1 away game each week. Away games will require limited travel to other participating West Shore Minors organization locations. West Shore Minors may also offer weekend tournament opportunity for players in the 14u Division.

A waitlist will be utilized for the 14U registration as it fills up in order to facilitate teams with an adequate number of players. Please continue to register players even if the waitlist is enabled. Once it is determined there is enough participation to create another team, we will contact you to finish your registration. Refunds will be provided to players who can no longer participate due to their selection to participate with the high school softball team.
