Northeast Little League Softball (NELLS)
Northeast Little League Softball (NELLS) is an all volunteer
organization serving girls from ages 5-15 years old with softball
programs in Fort Wayne, Indiana and adjoining townships. If the child is
a resident of Fort Wayne, or if your child attends any school (public
or private) located in Fort Wayne, then the child is eligible to play
softball in NELLS. In addition, if the child is a resident
of an area that is not served by a Little League organization, then the
child may participate in NELLS.
Our teams play throughout the Fort
Wayne area in the Indiana 10 Little League District. Our home fields
are located at Brookside Park off Maplecrest Road – a private park owned
by Brookside Church. A large porton of NELLS budget goes towards
maintenance of these fields and facilities (mowing, trash pickup, field
supplies, etc) during spring, summer, and fall.
Since NELLS is a
non-profit organization where all of our funds go directly to support
the athletes we are solely dependent on volunteers to manage, coach, and
support the league. We encourage parents, family members, and friends
to volunteer and support the players. The more we as volunteers can put
into the league, the more the girls can get from their participation.
