incoming freshman information

At the end of August 2025 (date TBD), we will hold an initial softball meeting for all student-athletes interested in playing in the Spring 2026 season.
 
Prior to the meeting, the most important step is ensuring all players are registered in Final Forms and have signed up under softball. This ensures you receive all key communications regarding Fall workouts and the pre-season program. Additionally, please make sure that both student-athletes and their parents/guardians have updated email contact information.
 
The RHS Coaching Staff will begin holding weekly Fall workouts in September 2025. These sessions typically take place once a week for approximately 10-12 weeks, concluding before Thanksgiving break.
 
While participation in these workouts is not mandatory, it is highly recommended - especially for incoming freshmen and transfer students. It helps players get familiar with the program, teammates, and coaching staff.
 
The workouts are designed to be flexible, allowing players to arrive late or leave early if they have commitments to other RHS sports or outside travel programs. We strongly believe that even attending for a short period is far more beneficial than not participating at all.
 
These sessions also provide players additional time to build confidence and comfort with the program leading into the mandatory tryouts in late January 2026. This is particularly important in case a player faces illness or injury during tryouts, as they will have a body of work to support their evaluation.
 
We look forward to assisting all interested student-athletes and are happy to answer any questions.
 
For more information, please feel free to reach out to either of the Co-Head Varsity Coaches via email.
 
Thank you!
