As the 2024 season comes to a close I want to Thank the POPS Directors and Supervisors for making this year so great.                                                         The Commissioners of POPs Fall Ball Howie Gallub & Hugh Kovitz & our own Umpires did a great job in finishing the Fall season. 

Congratulations to the POPs Fall Ball Champions: Hughes 40+, Aversano 50+ and Lane 60+. 

There will be some wonderful additions for 2025 from the New 70 & Over League,to the hope of Turf at Oceanside HS & Online Registration as well as many new players & a few new teams joining us from our large waiting list. Stay tunned and catch up on everything montly at this website as registration starts the 2nd week of January.

Congratulations to all the league Champions.. As the regular season comes to a conclusion and we head onto to fall ball, I want to thank all the Managers & Directors who have made this season so successful. The competion, camraderie and friendships continues the "brotherhood" POPs has become. 

Coming in 2025 - POPS 70 & Over League. Some players 66-69 years old & over will be eligible to join us. Contact the Commish if interested at commish@popsofball.com  More information to follow soon.

Based on request of players and a survey of managers in the 50+ league, the POPS board voted to have two leagues.  A 7 inning & 9 inning league. 12 teams voted for 7 innings & 4 voted for 9 innings. Consequently, there will be 3 champions. One from the 9 inning league and two from the 7 inning league, where the league will be split up to form 2 divisions for the playoffs.  _____________________________________________________________________________________

GREAT News!!! It is offcial - Oceanside HS, our home field is getting TURF. That means less rainouts, more room for makeups and a safer field hopefully for 2025. ___________________________________________________________________________________

It was great to see so many smiling faces. Men renewing friendships, having a night out, the competition and camraderie. Its what POPS Softball is all about. ___________________________________________________________________________________

POPS Softball is full for this year in all 3 leagues, the 40, 50 & 60+ leagues. 

I feel horrible we were unable to get the 3 teams and 67 players into our league from the waiting list. POPS will continue to try to get good fields to add these players next year. 

I'd like to "Welcome" the new teams and players to POPS Softball. You will find POPS is known as a "Brotherhood" where good competition, camaraderie and new freindships are the standard. ___________________________________________________________________________________

New Players or New Teams looking to join POPS Softball in 2025 can contact the Commish @ commish@popsoftball.com

Update-  POPS has gotten permission to add a "Port A Potty" at Oceanside HS.. It is placed behind the 1st base dugout, attached to the fence. Every manager has the combination of the lock and this will stay until after Fall Ball is completed. Please make sure to LOCK it when done. This means there are now facilities at every field we play on.
