2026 Season News (Oct 9, 2025)
Chico Senior Softball 2026 Season News:
2026 Registration News:
Please come back to sign up starting Jan 1st. Our 2026 season Registration will begin Jan 1, 2026. The 2026 registration fee is TBD and will be announced here when known.
Rather mail in your registration? A Paper Registration Form will also be made available on our Documents Page about Jan 1st.
You must be registered with your league fees fully paid to be included in your division’s draft. Estimated division drafts will begin March 16, 2026, subject to change.
ALL PLAYERS registered before the draft WILL BE placed on a team, guaranteed.
Players that register on or after their division’s draft date will be placed on a team ONLY if there are roster openings after the draft.
The number of teams per division will be determined by the number of draft eligible players. Team roster sizes will not exceed 13 players per team.
MANAGERS NEEDED for the 2026 Season:
Managers and Assistant Managers are needed for the 2026 season. Managers and Asst Managers are automatically on the same team. Primary duties of the Managers/Asst Managers are,
- a. Draft your team on draft night.
- b. Mange the team roster for the season.
- c. Make your teams line up for each game.
- d. Vote for your division’s All-Stars.
- e. Communicate with your players as needed on other matters that come up.
If you are interested in managing, please contact any CSS Board Member or email the Board at board@chicoseniorsoftball.com to express your interest.
As always, we encourage new Managers/Asst Managers each year to step forward as we cannot rely on or expect the same guys to do it each year.
What if there are not enough managers? If this happens then the CSS Board will draft the team(s) and the selected players will need to name a manager amongst themselves once the season starts.
