Concord Cannons ASA Softball Program
The
Concord Cannons was established in 2007 to give New England
baseball and softball
players the opportunity to participate at the highest level
of youth sports in the country. In
2011, the Cannons were made up
of players from 42 New
Hampshire towns and 4 states (New York, Massachusetts,
Florida and Maine).
Concord Cannons Mission Statement
The Concord Cannons believe the teaching of hard work and
dedication through teamwork and discipline creates a
stronger person on and off the field. Our coaches thrive on
getting the most out of each player’s ability on the field
as well as in the classroom. All Concord Cannons players
must be in good academic standing.
The
Concord Cannons program is for the serious softball player –
those who are looking for more than just town leagues. What
the Cannons can offer you that most town leagues can’t are
professional coaches, winter workouts and better
competition. The purpose of this program is to develop the
younger athlete into a complete softball player. We will
utilize our professional softball instructors to teach each
player how to train and play at a highly competitive level
of softball. Our program not only focuses on softball
instruction and training of young athletes, but also stress
the importance of achieving academic excellence in the
classroom. The Cannons are looking for dedicated, teachable
athletes who want to take their game to the next level
through hard work and dedication.

What is the Amateur Softball
Association?
The Amateur
Softball Association (ASA), a volunteer driven,
not-for-profit organization based in Oklahoma City, OK, was
founded in 1933 and has evolved into the strongest softball
organization in the country. The growth and development of
the association led the United States Olympic Committee (USOC)
to name the ASA the National Governing Body of Softball,
pursuant to the Amateur Sports Act of 1978.
The
ASA has many important responsibilities as the national
governing body of softball in the United States, including
regulating competition to insure fairness and equal
opportunity to the millions of player who annually play the
sport.
When the ASA
entered the softball picture in 1933, the sport was in a
state of confusion with no unified set of playing rules and
no national governing body to provide guidance and
stability. The ASA changed all that by adopting softball's
first universally accepted rules of play and by organizing
consistent and fair competition across the nation.
From this
beginning, the ASA has become one of the nation's largest
and fastest growing sports organizations and now sanctions
competition in every state through a network of 84 local
associations. The ASA has grown from a few hundred teams in
the early days to over 250,000 teams today, representing a
membership of more than four million.
