Form Your Own
Team!
Kids, Incorporated has made a change in
the way teams will be formed for the USSSA program. Rather than
forming teams by school affiliation, parents and coaches will now be
responsible for organizing the team roster.
This change was made to attempt
to increase participation in this particular sport since so many
times one school does not have enough interest to form a team.
What is
USSSA Softball?
USSSA is an
acronym that stands for United States Specialty Sports Association.
Kids,
Incorporated contracts with the City of Amarillo Umpires to
officiate each game. Kids, Incorporated also contracts with the
Amarillo Scorekeepers Association to keep score during each game.
These
officials use the USSSA rule book as a guide for league play.
Kids, Incorporated also implements a few local rules which are included
in the coach's packet.
General Information
A player must identify their
coach on the registration form since the Kids, Incorporated staff is
no longer involved in the team formation process.
USSSA
games are played on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
The
program fee is $50. Your program
fee includes the following:
