The Hits
There’s nothing like starting the season with a chilly Arctic Blast. Practices for tonight (2/19) are canceled and we’re keeping an eye on the rest of the week. Your coach will update you about any make-up practices.

Keep up with field closures on Instagram, Facebook, and the Northwest Softball homepage. Coach communication is still the best way to stay updated on changes or cancellations.

Volunteer Opportunity: Opening Day Photographers

With our new jerseys debuting this season, we’re looking to refresh our photo gallery for the website and social media. If you’re a parent, relative, or high-school sibling with a knack for sports photography, we’d love your help snapping shots on Opening Day and throughout the season.
