The Chicago style of softball is here in DeKalb.

Sixteen-inch softball is similar to 12-inch softball, yet it’s played with a unique ball. Players do not need gloves to participate in the sport.

Men’s, women’s, co-rec and organizational leagues will be offered for students and Campus Recreation faculty/staff members. “A” League (competitive) and “B” League (recreational) will be offered. A team consists of 10 players.

Sixteen-inch softball league will be a four-week season, and every team will be scheduled for one game per week.

For $65 per team, you can play in our competitive or recreational league. Make sure you register your team today; the deadline to register is 11:55 p.m. Tuesday, March 20.

Visit www.imleagues.com/niu for team registration.
