As we begin the summer, coaches please don't forget that the double first base is mandatory for the 2027 season. This is an UIL state adoption that supersedes the NFHS rule book.
Also make sure soon if you are hosting a tournament on city, county, private, etc. facilities, that they also have the double first base. I know we are already making sure that all of the Bryan/College Station area complexes that we use for the @leadoffclassic have them ready.
UIL sent this out to all coaches before the season and will post reminders on the website soon.
I've already transferred this year's standings to pdf format to put in archives sections of the website. And I have input the new 2027-28 softball districts for 6A.
I haven't deleted this year's scores yet, so the standing currently there are the new districts with the 2026 records..
if you're curious, you can check them out before I pull scores from this year's sheets

What an awesome weekend of @uiltexas state championship softball in Austin! Each year the UIL staff raises the bar of excellence and each year the tournament meets and exceeds that bar as the experience in Austin gets better and better every year.
This was my 31st state tournament to attend and the progress of our sport is amazing and I so honored that the coaches let be a part of it and help them during the past 22 years.
It was also good to spend quality time all weekend speaking to softball advisory/committee members from the @THSCAcoaches and @AustinTGCA while also having great visits with Glen West, Libby Pacheco, Sam Tipton, and Lee Grisham. I also appreciated the time getting to visit with Ray Zepeda and Grace McDowell in the meetings and at the stadium. Our sport is in great hands with all of these leaders and I hope to be able to continue my work helping all of coaches as well.
Thanks again for another awesome weekend of softball!!
Good Morning Saturday! Back at Red & Charlene McCombs Field for the final day of the 2026 @uiltexas state softball championships!
