Welcome to Oak City Softball League
FALL 2025 SEASON IS UNDERWAY!
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 are so stoked to see old friends and add to our Oak City Softball League family by welcoming our new players and teams!
(Each team in our Open Competitive, D, and E divisions is 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.

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.

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.
