Last Day for Roswell's Slow-Pitch Softball Survey

Roswell may join N. Fulton cities in a new league.

Today's the last day to let Roswell know if you are interested in the city forming a slow-pitch girls softball league along with Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek and Sandy Springs.

If the proposed league came to life, the city teams would practice at their home parks and play home and away games against the other cities.

Joel St. Vrain, the athletic supervisor for the Roswell Recreation Parks Department, told Patch in April that girls need a non-competitive alternative.

"We are hoping to fill a void for the girls that are not looking to play any type of competitive or travel sport, but still want to get out and participate in a team sport. We are looking to provide a team sport that is all about fun and getting girls outside recreating again," he said.

“None of the cities could do this alone,” Kirk Franz, Johns Creek's Parks and Recreation manager, previously told Patch. “By coming together we can make it happen.”
