Tuesday Night Fall league players & managers,

Thank you for joining us for the 2026 fall league season at the Wildwood Complex in Sheboygan. Thanks to your support, Fox Valley Athletics & Apparel league team enrollment has grown for 15 consecutive years, with the Sheboygan program expanding by 236% since taking over in 2024. This growth is a credit to you, your players, and our many dedicated staff members.

With the fall league being smaller than the summer league, we will be running with one division. Upper-level teams, please use this opportunity to showcase quality sportsmanship when playing less competitive teams. Less competitive teams, please take this opportunity to learn from some of the top players in the program when playing upper-level teams. We ask that all players recognize that without the players playing across from you, you wouldn't have a sport.

You are scheduled to play each other one time for a total of eight games over a five-week period. Weather permitting, we will run a year-end tournament at season's end, giving your teams no less than two additional games (weather permitting). Please plan to play through mid-October. *Please review your schedules carefully, noting that you will have some double-headers and teams will sometimes rotate between fields. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns on this.

Please note that we are managing schedules differently this fall season as we transition to building a new platform for schedules and standings, which will launch for the 2027 summer season. Building this system will take roughly 3.5 months, and starting now allows us to resolve any issues before next spring. In the interim, schedules will be emailed directly to you (managers) and posted on our page (Sheboygan Softball Program - Adult Slow Pitch ). Because these initial schedules do not account for rainouts, we will update and repost them periodically as needed. Please monitor your email and our page for these updates. Standings will be compiled and posted around the mid-season mark rather than updated nightly. We appreciate your patience with this temporary process as we work to improve our system.

My staff and I are looking forward to an enjoyable extension of the season. Good luck and have fun. :) As always, thank you for your continued support.

A Little Update ❤️

After some time away from the softball fields following the heartbreaking loss of my son, Dylan, I wanted to let everyone know that I’ll be slowly returning to work and resuming my responsibilities at the fields.

Stepping away was something I needed to do to take care of myself, my family, and to navigate life after losing Dylan. There really aren’t words to explain how difficult this time has been, and I know grief doesn’t simply go away. I’m learning to carry it with me while continuing to move forward.

The softball fields have been such a big part of mine and Dylan’s life, and I’m grateful for the people and community that have always made them feel like home. Coming back won’t necessarily be easy, but I’m ready to take that step.

I appreciate everyone who has given me grace, patience, understanding, and support during my time away. Especially those who stepped up to keep things running in my absence. Please know that it has meant more than you probably realize.

I’m looking forward to getting back to doing what I love, and being back with the softball community.

I look forward to finishing out the 2026 season with all of you.
