The Stampede is a select softball program that provides an opportunity for competitive players looking to continue to develop their skills year round, which will allow them to take their game to the next level.  We will provide the very best year round training and play against the highest level of competition, at a much lower cost than traditional club teams.  Last season we fielded a 16u team. This year our intention is to field a 14u, 16u team.  

For the MVSA family that does not yet wish to pursue the more intensive softball experience that the Stampede will offer, the traditional MVSA team experience at the 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, 16U and 18U levels will continue to be available to players living or going to school in the Mounds View district for a very affordable registration fee, (most recently $210 for summer 2018 registrations).

Tryouts will be Monday August 12th at Rice Creek Park. All interested players must be registered on the MVSA website.  A $25 tryout fee will be collected the evening of tryouts. If you’re unable to attend tryouts or if you have any other questions please contact Nate Urfer at nate8urfer@outlook.com or (612) 203-2495.
