Frequently Asked Questions

Please read the 'Player Guide & Frequent Questions' link at the left. We have included many of the common questions we receive along with their answers. This is to help provide information as quickly as possible.

One common question is "What equipment does my daughter need?":

hGsa provides each girl with a team shirt. Girls are responsible for their own shorts, glove, and shoes/cleats. We recommend players wait to purchase shorts until after their coach contacts them - some coaches ask players to wear certain color shorts so the team matches.

Metal cleats are NOT allowed. Girls may wear tennis shoes or plastic cleats. In order to slide, girls must wear a slider. Many girls also choose to purchase a helmet, which must have a face mask and be NOCSAE-certified. If you wish to purchase your daughter a bat, it must be a softball bat that is ASA-approved.

If you have an idea for a question/answer that we should include on the list, please send it to the 'Contact the Webmaster' link.
