TERMS & CONDITIONS
A LEGAL DISCLAIMER
Too many travel teams across the DMV region (Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington, DC) struggle to find consistent, high-quality reps between tournaments. Scrimmages are often last-minute, poorly matched, or disorganized, leaving coaches scrambling and players without the meaningful competition they need to grow.
The Mid-Atlantic Softball Circuit (MASC) was created to change that.
We offer structured, competitive doubleheader scrimmages built around clear divisions, league-managed scheduling, tracked standings, and optional end-of-season tournaments and showcases. Every scrimmage is built to give teams quality reps between tournaments without the extra cost.
Teams register for either the fall or spring season and choose between the Premier or Gold division. 16U and 18U teams will also have the option to register for a summer season. Teams can play as many or as few scrimmages as they want, matched with opponents at a similar level. 12U and 14U teams will end the spring with a tournament, while 16U and 18U teams will have the opportunity to participate in showcase events at the end of the fall and summer.
Powered by DMV Dream Athletics Inc., is a regional initiative designed to support coaches, strengthen team development, and help lay the foundation for long-term growth of the sport throughout the DMV.
