GAL SOFTBALL
The Glen Lake Girls Athletic League is a volunteer, non-profit association serving the girls in the Hopkins, and Minnetonka area. GAL was started 50 years ago to provide girls with an opportunity to participate in a local league of their own. Unlike highly competitive leagues, GAL is not designed for a few highly skilled athletes, but for any girls from kindergarten to 12th grade who have a desire to learn and play softball, regardless of skill. Over the years, thousands of girls have participated in the GAL league, and many later returned as parents, coaches and board members.
There have been many changes and accomplishments in the league over the years, but the core mission has not changed — providing a safe, positive, softball experience for girls, teaching the skills that contribute to self-confident play, promoting good sportsmanship, and allowing the girls to have fun!
