_______________________________________________

The Spokane Valley Girls Softball Association first sprouted from the ambitions of a few girls who wanted to play some softball — primarily, Sal Jackson. For over 50 years now, Sal's dedication and vision has provided thousands of Spokane Valley girls the opportunity to be part of a fun and healthy family. Year after year, with the help of dozens of volunteer coaches, parents, and community friends, the league has grown into the successful and anticipated summer sports program that it is today.

Girls Softball since 1967

We have been providing summer softball fun for girls longer than anyone else in the area!
