2021 Spring/Summer Fastpitch League
Fastpitch with Champlin Park Fastpitch Association is a competitive traveling organization. Games are broken up between home (at Champlin Park High School) and away (in surrounding communities). Practice is based upon the coach, but many teams will practice two nights per week. There are also weekend tournaments that are determined by team/coach.
Tryouts are scheduled for Sunday, March 7th, 2021 at the Champlin Park High School.
· 9:00-9:30 12U Pitchers/Catchers Warm-up
· 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM: 12U
· 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM: 8U
· 1:00- 1:30 10U Pitchers/Catchers Warm-up
· 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM: 10U
· 3:00- 3:30 14U Pitchers/Catchers Warm-up
· 3:30 PM - 5:00 PM: 14U/16U
Registration for league play is required to attend tryouts.
There are no refunds of registration fees after tryouts.
Each family is required to complete volunteer hours to help with our tournament and season games. This helps us keep registration costs down. There will be volunteer hour buy out options again this year. We will announce details at a later date.
Organization Options: 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, 16U, 18U
ASA Age Groupings are based upon the age of the player on Dec 31 of the previous year.
Example: 8U: 8 yrs or younger on this past Dec 31
If your 8U eligible daughter is interested in "playing up" to 10U, please select 10U at registration and she will be required to try out at both 8U and 10U levels. She will be placed upon the appropriate team commensurate with her tryout scores. (If she has played 10U in the past, it is not necessary to tryout 8U level).
If your 10U eligible daughter is interested in "playing up" to 12U, you will be required to petition in writing to the CPFA board before tryouts to tryout at the higher level. Please register at the appropriate age grouping and we will adjust based upon board approval and the play up placement policy.
League Fee:
These fees include tryouts, practices, fields, league games, umpires (no umpires for 8u), a full uniform, and two weekend tournaments, plus suburban league qualifier and state tournament.
Each level will be tiered by skill level determined at tryout and by coaches' and board's past experience with players.
Please review the Team Formation and Tryout policy available under the Association Docs tab on the website for additional details.
Registration is CLOSED.

Obviously, there will be some changes in how practices and games will look with the new MDH COVID19 safety protocols. Please take some time to review the Back to the Diamond Safety Guidelines attached below as well as all of the information on the Minnesota Softball site (link below).
The Minnesota Youth Athletic Services/Gopher State Baseball, Metro Baseball League/Minnesota Baseball Tournaments, and USA Softball Minnesota/Minnesota Softball have joined together to submit a “2020 Back to the Diamond” proposal to the Governor regarding how to safely get our ball players back on the field. The Champlin Park Fastpitch Association is currently awaiting word regarding this proposal. When and if this proposal is approved, we will be ready to begin safely practicing. If you would like more information on this proposal, please see the full press release below.
