2025 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERSHIP REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN THROUGH MAY 31

All individuals associated with any NWSA team must register as an individual member of the NWSA.  All athletes, team representatives, coaches, assistant coaches, or team staff must register.  Basically, anyone that plans to be on the bench or have access to the team during practices or games must register.

During the NWSA Member Registration process you will be able to select a team you expect to be associated with for the 2025 season.  If your team is not listed, please contact your team representative as this indicates your team has not completed the Team Registration process.

DON'T DELAY THE INDIVIDUAL NWSA MEMBER REGISTRATION WILL CLOSE ON MAY 31, 2025. 

Any athletes added to team after May 31 will require approval from the NWSA Board of Directors.

2025 TEAM REGISTRATION AND WSWS REGISTRATION NOW OPEN - LAST CALL FOR TEAMS

All team representatives should use the link listed below to register their team for the 2025 Wheelchair Softball season.  This link can also be used to register your team for the 2025 Wheelchair Softball World Series to be held in Bloomington, Minnesota at Mall of America fields.

Due to confusion some teams had regarding which registration had been completed and paid, the NWSA Board of Directors approved the combination of both registration events.  It is preferred that teams pay at the time of registration, however there is an option to pay offline at the end of the registration process.

Your team must complete its registration and payment process to be listed as a team for members to select during the membership registration which is now open.

Don't delay your team registration as it will only create confusion for your team members when they try to associate their registration to your team.
