From recreational softball to competitive travel ball, year-in and year-out, SBGS attracts talented players from San Bruno and nearby cities like Millbrae, South City, and Daly City as well as many from San Francisco. We continually produce competitive teams at all levels, are continually learning, and constantly improving the softball experience for all our players. Whether you are new to softball, looking for a place to learn the game and have fun with friends, or you are a competitive player looking for a stepping-stone to the next level, we believe we have a place for you here. Join the winning tradition!

OUR PURPOSE FOR OUR EXPECTATIONS:

Our reputation can get us banned from games and tournaments more easily than getting into them, so win or lose, we must maintain the standard of having the most well behaved teams, families, and spectators. As members of the SBGSL Family we are the face of our league and community. We must lead by example and set the foundation of great character for our young athletes to carry with them beyond sports.
