Welcome
Carlsbad Softball Association takes pride in the fact that we offer recreational and competitive softball in a safe, friendly and fun environment. Providing a well rounded softball (and life) experience to girls between the ages of 4 and 16, CSA has adopted the motto “It’s ALL about the GIRLS”, which is our constant reminder of who the most important people in our league truly are.

By keeping our teams small we allow girls to get a maximum amount of playing time, and our Advanced Placement program allows certain girls to challenge their abilities by playing in a higher division. Through our Carlsbad Commitment program we work to teach our children important values and life lessons revolving around the traits of Character, Attitude, Respect, Leadership, Behavior, Action, and Determination (CARLSBAD).

With the combined effort of our many outstanding Board members, managers, coaches, team parents and parent volunteers, CSA has developed into one of the finest softball programs in North County San Diego.

Carlsbad Softball Association…It’s ALL about the GIRLS!
