With the success of District 5 Girls Baseball’s inaugural season in 2024, the D5 Girls Program is back for its 2nd Season! With the rising popularity of girls’ baseball (Women’s Professional Baseball League coming in 2026!) the program’s goal remains two-fold; to introduce more girls into the game of baseball and to keep girls playing the game in a space where they can play as their authentic selves, comfortable and able to thrive!
This year, D5 Girls Baseball is offering two programs for our aspiring female baseball players on the north shore. Participation in the D5 Girls Baseball program is not meant to replace participation in home league’s, such as LVLL. Last year, our LVLL girls were able to participate in LVLL programming concurrently with the D5 Girls program.
