RMSS - 15th Year

Let's sign up for summer 2021

Rochester MN Senior Softball League

 

Rochester MN Senior Softball (RMSS) is a spring/summer league open to men and women players. Men must be at least 50 years old, and women players must be at least 40 years old during the playing season.  Our focus is on fun, fitness  and fellowship. 

 

Games are played on Monday and Wednesday mornings at McQuillan fields in southeast Rochester, behind  Longfellow school on Marion Road.  Normal start time is at 9:30 AM with optional batting practice at 8:30 AM.  Start times are occasionally modified slightly, due to weather or field availability.

 

The season is separated into sessions.  Players register as  individuals, then are drafted and assigned to teams for each  session. This minimizes the chance that a single team dominates the other teams.  It also accounts for player availability based upon new players,  injuries, vacations, and work responsibilities.  It also promotes fellowship as the team rosters change each session. The dates for each session are included on the General Calendar (under the More tab) and reflected in the Games Schedule page. The Events/News page records our mid-season picnics and other celebrations in addition to general news items. 

  

We will have 6-8 teams for the 2021 season.  The 2021 season will run from May 3 through Sept 27 with 4 sessions of between 9   

and 12 games and a total of 40 games. 

 

The 2021 fee will be $48 with an early bird rate of $40.  Players signed up by April 21st, will receive a FREE Cap representing our 15th year of playing senior softball in Rochester.  The fee covers the 40 scheduled games plus picnics. 

 

The Registration and Waiver page has the early bird sign up dates/locations and the Registration and Waiver form.  You may print the form on your printer, fill it out and and bring it with proof of age to the registration site.  Remember, women must be at least 40 by calendar year end, and men must be at least 50.

 

SPECIAL NOTE: If you want to join the league after the season  starts, contact a RMSS Board member or a Team Manager.  The Board members and team manager information is available on the Contact Us page.  A per game fee or a reduced season fee,  based upon your start date, is offered.  

  

There are picnics for some of the scheduled sessions.  2021 season picnics are scheduled for 7/14, 8/18 and 9/27.  They are FREE to RMSS players and are great opportunities for fun and fellowship!!  For more league and team information, click the tabs at the top of  this page. 

 

Standings and Team Rosters for each of the planned  sessions will be posted as the season progresses.  Events/News is updated as RMSS has items to report.  Throughout the year the RMSS will send emails with events and news items as well.  Note  the More tab.
