The Cages

05/24/2026

The Cages will be holding two weekly summer softball camps for youth softball players (grades K-8) over the summer of 2026 (full schedule outlined below). These camps are for softball players looking to improve/prepare their hitting and fielding skills for the upcoming/current season, teach life lessons, get comfortable being uncomfortable and have fun with current high school and collegiate softball players. Players will have full access to The Cages and local softball fields during the duration of the camps. Campers will work with current Elite/Cages players/staff and be introduced to drills, techniques and terminology. This is a tremendous opportunity for players to continue the development of their skillset while also having a lot of fun!

We'll be hosting these the weeks of 7/13 and 8/3. We look forward to having your softball player join us for a fun-filled week of softball and games! If you would like to register your athlete, please do so at the link below. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected].

Solid start!

Mother Nature was kind enough to let us get the baseball season under way, and 4 of our teams were in action!

On Saturday, our 11u squad kicked things off with a couple of wins on a total of 33 runs!

On Sunday, our 10u team got under way and ran into a buzz saw in the Mountaineers team. The dropped both games on the day, but will bounce back quick and get back after it next weekend.

The 11u boys were back in action and picked up another DH sweep. They’re building great momentum out of the gate!

The 12u crew got started on the road and had a great split with a solid River Rats team. They dropped a tight one run game in the first, and came back with a dominating performance in game two.

The 13u team had the tough draw of opening up their season against a really strong Lightning team, and dropped two to start there season. It’s early, and they’ll bounce back quickly as well.

Congrats to 11u player, Hudson W. (Pictured below) on two home runs this weekend. Drew C and Ryker E, from our 12u squad also went deep.

Lots a great things out of the first weekend in action, and they’ll all get back after it next weekend as well. All teams are on GameChanger if you’re looking to follow along.
