League Joe is Coming to St. James!

We're bringing the fun of the DRAFT LEAGUE experience to St. James at Nelson Hart Park! This is league is open to ALL AGESALL EXPERIENCE LEVELS, and anyone who believes slowpitch softball should be FUN!


What is a DRAFT league? It's a league where all players enter a pool and are selected by coaches before the season begins. All players are ranked based on their experience level, and each team drafts according to a salary cap. This creates even competition, fun head-to-head matchups, and unparalleled social fun as the entire league participates in after parties as a single entity.

We are currently looking for interested players for a St. James League on FRIDAYS nights at Nelson Hart Park. Two games per night on a rotating timeslot, so games will be in the evening starting no earlier than 6:30 pm CT.

We will be looking for interested players to serve as coaches for the first season, and we'll have an inaugural draft party to draft everyone to their new teams and get the league started ASAP within the next couple weeks. Contact us with any questions!

Players will receive a Jersey for the Fall season.

Registration

You may register for this league as an individual or as a couple. You must have a LeagueJoe account to participate in this league.

St James Softball League - Event Update

Greetings!

Thank you for everyone who joined us for last week's Free Friday draft tourney.  Unfortunately, this event did not lead to enough additional registrations for our Friday night league, so we will be cancelling the league at this time.  We will be working on a gameplan to attempt to bring this league back in the Spring.  In the meantime, we will be issuing refunds to all players.

Please complete this survey to receive your refund. Thank you for your interest and we're sorry we couldn't quite get enough this time, but hopefully we can in the Spring.

St James League Update - Friday Gameplan

Thank you for everyone who has signed up for the St. James league!  When we announced, we received a very positive reception, but sign ups have been slower than expected.  It seems many in the area are simply uncertain about the draft format, but we're committed to bringing it to town.  So.... here's the gameplan!

Tomorrow Night is Now Free Draft Tournament!

Friday Night Lights will not only invite everyone on this league to play, but anyone in town to play for free. We will do the draft LIVE at the park from 5:30-6:30, with play beginning at 6:30pm. Our hope is this gives people a chance to try the format, so they sign up for the league!

Tournament Info Page

What About the League?

We do not currently have enough players to run a league, however we are close. If this tournament tomorrow drives in enough new registrations, we will begin the league next week and play our promised 8 weeks. If not, then we will be forced to cancel and will refund your registration fee. But at least we will have gotten a good night of ball in!

How Does the Tournament Work?

Much like the league, all players will be drafted to teams and get a chance to play ball. More than anything, we want everyone to use this as an opportunity to knock the rust off, meet the other players, and have fun. You will play a minimum of three games (2 pool play games, then single elimination) and the winners will get the first ever St. James Championship pins!


I Can't Make it Friday

No worries, we'll update you next week as to the status of the league.

Do I Need to Attend the Draft?

Attending the draft part is optional, but we recommend it if you can. It's fun and involves a draft board and stickers and a lot of yelling :)

Do I Need to Bring Anything Special?

Nothing you weren't already planning to bring! While it is a tournament, it's going to be laid back - like our league!

I Have a Friend - Can They Join?

Yes, please. Please have all players register at the new Friday Night Drafts tournament page.


St. James League Update

Greetings!  After speaking with several players and coaches, many have expressed scheduling conflicts, so we will cancel tonight's Open Play.  Play will begin next Friday, August 16 with games starting at 6:15pm.  We will conduct our player draft to select players on Thursday, August 15 - stay tuned for additional details on that!

See you soon!
