Saturday, July 20^th, kicked off the first day of Week 1 of the 2024 edition of the PGF Nationals in Southern California and, gauging by the fun everyone was having, it was a great day (and a great way) to get the travel softball action started.

This week’s competition features top 18U and 16U teams from around the nation while, next week, elite teams in the 14U, 12U and 10U age divisions will travel to the Golden State to compete for Premier and Platinum championships.

Today was check-in day for the older players and teams, which included bat testing and team photos as well as the beginning of two days of Pool Play.

Below are just a few video clips taken at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex to show the energy and fun all were having!
