Darien Little League: Darien Diamonds Travel Softball

Darien Diamonds Softball has travel teams for 8U, 9U, 10U, 11U and 12U teams. Tryouts happen in July and August for the following spring with supplemental practices in fall and winter. Travel players must also play house softball during the spring season.

Expected commitments for Darien Diamond players:

According to Darien Little League, all travel players must play in the Darien Little League Softball House Program in the spring.

During the fall season, travel players should expect one practice and one game per week. Because softball is not an in-season fall sport, DLL says that best efforts are expected to attend as much as possible.

During the winter, players will have one indoor practice weekly at the McGuane cages and other open hitting and pitching sessions. Again, because softball is not an in-season winter sport, DLL expects best efforts to attend.

For the spring and summer, travel players will have house practices and games, plus one travel team practice and one to two travel games per week. During the spring and summer, the expectation is that travel softball will take precedence over all other sports and activities.
