January 2018
Dear parents,
There are organizational changes at NCYS going into effect this spring. NCYS will be joining Cherokee Youth Softball (CYS) which is ran by the Cherokee Parks and Recreation Agency (CPRA). The spring season will be a transition for everyone. The following list highlights some of the changes and/or plans for the upcoming 2018 spring season. CPRA’s goal is to offer the best softball program possible for the girls of Cherokee County. As the transition takes place, there will be lessons learned and more changes to come in future seasons. Please remain patient and optimistic as the county’s softball programs and our girls opportunities grow!
-
CYS will offer softball at 2 parks, Weatherby and Twin Creeks

You can sign up based on which park you would prefer to be your “home field”

Week day practices and week day games will be held at your home field if there are enough girls / teams in your age group
