BIG CHANGE - "Cut-Off Age" Explanation (Please Read Carefully)

Mentor Girls Softball League in association with USSSA (our national governing body for our league and its rules), has adjusted our “cut-off age” rule.  We are moving to a “School-Year” timeframe (Sept thru Aug) instead of our old “Calendar-Year” timeframe (Jan thru Dec), this is in line to keep players of the same grade level together as they progress in age.  This will add 4 additional months of eligibility for a player to stay down in a division without being forced up to the next higher division.  This change will align all United States Youth Softball Governing Bodies to the same “Cut-Off” rule. (The Player’s age on August 31, 2025 for the 2026 Summer Season.)

Below is a handy “Age Chart” for this Year. Just find your child’s/player’s “Birth Month” and then their “Birth Year” and follow the row to the right to find their official Age and Division for this 2026 season.

As always you can move your child/player to the next higher division based on their skill level.  This is especially true if your child/player is “Official 6-years old” do they need to be in “T-Ball” or should they be in “8u Coach-Pitch”. And if your child/player is “Official 8-years old” do they need to be in “8U Coach-Pitch” or should they be in “10U Fastpitch” (Players are pitching to batters & catching the ball behind home-plate).
