Rochester MN Senior Summer 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, near 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, in addition to promoting fellowship as the team rosters change each session.
