Welcome to Oak City Softball League
FALL 2025 SEASON HAS CONCLUDED
We started our Fall 2025 season on Sunday, August 17th, with all 27 teams across our 4 divisions getting games in on a hot North Carolina late summer day – we played through our last regular season games, then proceeded to our division double elimination league tournaments (Women’s+ Division on October 19th, and our Open Divisions on October 26th and November 16th). It’s been a great season and we can’t wait to do it all again in March 2026 – registration opens January 1st!
(Each team in our Open Competitive, D, and E divisions plays 14 regular season games, and a minimum of 2 games in the season-ending tournament; our Women’s+ Division teams will each play 10 regular season games, and like the Open Division teams, will play a minimum of 2 games in their season-ending tournament (the tournaments for all divisions will be double-elimination format, weather permitting). Our league is intended to provide a welcoming, respectful environment for LGBT+ (and Allied) players and teams; our rules of play are also posted. We’ve worked hard to put together what we believe is a great experience for everyone, and hope you’ll consider joining us!)
NOTE: We communicate via newsletters sent each week during the season to all players in the league; if you haven’t seen this league communication, please check your junk mailbox. If you are a registered player and haven’t seen this newsletter, please email us at community@oakcitysoftball.org and we’ll get that straightened out.

OAK CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE’S COMPETITIVE DIVISION FALL 2025 LEAGUE TOURNAMENT RESULTS
Congratulations go out to our Competitive Division tourney champs Sunday Swingers, who battled against Red Rocketz (our 2nd place winners) for the championship. Sunday Swingers were also the division’s regular season champs with a 13-1 season (matched by Red Rocketz, but decided by 2nd and 3rd tiebreakers Runs Scored and Run Differential). We can’t wait to see everybody in March 2026 (registration opens January 1st) to get back in the dirt and do it all again!
OAK CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE’S D DIVISION FALL 2025 LEAGUE TOURNAMENT RESULTS
Congratulations to our D Division tourney champs the Woofs (blue shirts) who played a challenging championship game with Basic Pitches (coming in in second place, turquoise shirts); congratulations also go out to Big Ol Hitties (orange shirts), our division regular season champions for their 10-2 record! All teams in the division played great games this season, and we can’t wait to get the gang back together in mid-March 2026 (registration opens January 1st)!
OAK CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE’S E DIVISION FALL 2025 LEAGUE TOURNAMENT RESULTS
Congratulations to our E Division season-ending double-elimination tournament champs (and also regular season champs) One Hit Wonders (green shirts)! They came very close to playing an “if” championship game under the lights versus a strong Mitt Fits team (pink shirts), our second place tourney finishers. We are so happy to give a shout-out to the other teams in the division as well – Base Invaders E and Bat-itude. These teams demonstrated cooperation and outright FUN to the rest of the league, and we are proud of our E Division. We can’t wait to welcome these teams and players back in March 2026 – registration is ready to go January 1st!
OAK CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE’S WOMEN’S+ DIVISION FALL 2025 LEAGUE TOURNAMENT RESULTS
Congratulations to our Women’s+ season-ending double-elimination tourney champs (and regular season champs), the GOATS! Coming in strong at second place was Red Rocket Riderz – both teams finished a long day of tournament play with a nail-biter of an “if” game on October 19th. All six teams in our Women’s+ division showed out this season with good times and good vibes – we’re ready to get this division fired back up in March 2026 (registration opens January 1st)!
iPRIDE SOFTBALL/ASANA AND OUR LEAGUE
Spring 2025 will be our fourth season as Raleigh’s only member city organization of iPride Softball, and our sixth season as Raleigh’s exclusive member city affliliation of ASANA – Amateur Sports Alliance of North America. We are so excited about our membership in both organizations, and we are very much looking forward to our third national tournament encompassing both iPride and ASANA players – more information will be coming during the first weeks of our season!
A friendly reminder: Our league is intended to provide a welcoming, respectful environment for LGBTQIA+ (and allied) players and teams; our rules of play and code of conduct are posted on this website to provide the proper expectations to everyone affiliated with our league. Both of these items have been the subject of careful review by our leadership team and we believe they set us apart in a positive way in our quest to create a fun environment for our players — we’ve worked hard to put together what we think will be a great experience for everyone!
We use USA Softball Approved Bats Exclusively
We adhere to the use of USA Softball (formerly ASA) approved bats, exclusively. Bats need to have an ASA or USA Softball stamp, and not be on the USA Softball Non-Approved list (this PDF is dated 10-5-2021) in order to be used in Oak City Softball League games. What this means, other than bats not appearing on the ban list, is that any bats in league play MUST have an ASA/USA Softball stamp regardless of other organizations appearing on a bat (USSSA or NSA bats without an ASA/USA stamp are not allowed). Please see league staff if there are questions and we will clarify for you. If you would like to do further research, the updated list is kept on USA Softball’s website; additional explanation of terms, organizations, and stamps can be found in this blog post.
