Harvard Lady Sting is a fast pitch program with both rec teams and competitive travel.

The competitive travel teams hold tryouts in Late July - Early August for positions on their teams. Fees are some of the lowest in the area ranging from 250 for 8u and 500-700.00 for the remaining age groups.

Fundraising is available to help cover the cost of fees and players may also obtain sponsors. In addition payment plans are available for all programs. 

In the 2021-2022 Season teams will participate in events ranging from  fall tournaments, indoor dome tournaments, whiffle tournaments and a full spring/ summer season. 

Most teams will also  participate in Nationals.  



The recreational softball league is for girls from ages 5-20. There are currently six available age groups. 6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U,  and High school. Registration is open to residents of Harvard and surrounding communities. Practices and HOME games are held at Milky Way Park in Harvard
