Unveiling the Top-Ranked Youth Fastpitch Teams of the Fall
The Alliance Fastpitch is excited to announce the top-rated youth fastpitch teams from the Fall! Our rankings showcase the top teams in travel softball highlighting the exceptional performance of youth fastpitch athletes across the nation.
The rankings are determined by a team’s performance on the field using our Alliance Rating System. This is the only rating system in youth softball that combines game results from all tournaments, no matter the tournament operator or sanctioning body.
Teams must have a minimum of 9 players on their Alliance Fastpitch roster to be eligible for team rankings and leaderboards. Learn more about our Alliance Fastpitch membership here.
Alliance Rating System: The Gold Standard in Youth Softball
At the heart of these rankings is the Alliance Rating System, a sophisticated method based on the ELO rating system, similar to the RPI used in college softball. This rating system provides a comprehensive evaluation of team performance, taking into account factors such as strength of schedule and quality of wins.
Teams must score and stream with AthletesGoLive so their game results are automatically calculated within our Rating System.
