For the 2025 Traveling Season ALL families will be responsible for providing solid BLACK softball pants for their players.
Our new uniform package will consist of:
Why the change?
Our uniform vendor Boombah, will be no longer be carrying our programs standard black, green, white stripped pants as an in-stock item going forward. Which means EVERY pair would have to be custom ordered and manufactured which leads to higher costs, and longer shipment speeds.
By making this change we hope that players can find solid black pants from whatever manufacturer (Nike, Champro, Under Armour, Mizuno, ect.) that fits THEM the best.
