  • About Storm is a fastpitch softball travel team based in the Downingtown, PA area. Our 10U team is for young players to begin their travel softball journey. We also host 8U softball skills clinics and can field an 8U team depending on players and coaching. Exceptional 8U players are invited to play up on the 10U team. We maintain a balance between training intensity and player interest level to avoid burnout. Softball has to stay fun for the player.

    Our 12U players are committed to the competitive softball experience and are prepared to successfully compete both in travel softball and their middle school softball program. Many also continue to play in their Little League program. Storm does cater to multi-sport athletes and maximizes flexibility in order to keep player and parent stress to a minimum.

    All players earn their playing time, batting order assignment, and fielding position through their performance at practices and games. We balance immediate team needs (winning this game) with longer term player confidence development in all decisions. Maintaining a positive team culture so players can focus on their development is more important than winning. We evaluate parents as much as we evaluate players.

    At these younger levels of play, it is important for the player to maximize proper repetitions in practice and in-game situations. So, batting towards the bottom of the batting order, sitting on the bench more, or not playing in a target fielding position on an "elite" team may be less optimal for skill and confidence building, depending on the player. Players batting in the top half of the batting order will see 18-25% more plate appearances. (Big fish, small pond versus small fish, big pond).
