The MVSA select program is known as STORM.  Players on these teams routinely make varsity squads as freshman in high school and many go on to play at the college level.  One of the main reasons Storm teams and players are some of the best is the outstanding coaching they receive.  Our coaches have many years of playing and coaching experience.

The Storm tournament season begins in April or May, depending on the team's age, and ends in July.   Storm teams play in eight to ten highly competitive softball tournaments that require they win or place to earn a berth to a national tournament.  Storm teams routinely qualify for national tournaments, which are week-long tournaments held in late July or early August.

"Love the game.
Love the game for the pure joy of accomplishment.
Love the game for everything it can teach you about yourself.
Love the game for the feeling of belonging to a group endeavoring to do its best.
Love the game for being involved in a team whose members can't wait to see you do your best.
Love the game for the challenge of working harder than you ever have at something and then harder than that.
Love the game because it takes all team members to give it life.
Love the game because at its best, the game tradition will include your contributions.
Love the game because you belong to a long line of fine athletes who have loved it. It is now your legacy.
Love the game so much that you will pass on your love of the game to another athlete who has seen your dedication, your work, your challenges, your triumphs . . .
and then that athlete will, because of you, love the game."
