Alliance Awards & Player Recognition Program

Alliance Logo

Softball players are at the center of everything we do – and we love recognizing their accomplishments! From leaderboards to All-Stars to Players of the Month, Alliance athletes have a multitude of opportunities to showcase their skills, both on and off the field - and get recognized for it!

All stats and games must be scored with AthletesGoLive (AGL) to be eligible for consideration. Using AGL enables us to keep a running record of player stats. Awards are also exclusive to Alliance members only. Join today to be in the running for Regional and National recognition amongst your peers!

Athlete Leaderboards

Alliance athletes have the opportunity to be featured year-round on National and Regional League Leaderboards, from player stats to skills challenges and performance measures.

To appear on the Player Statistics leaderboards athletes must be registered with the Alliance Fastpitch for the current Season and their team must score and stream with AthletesGoLive.
Player Statistics are automatically updated from each event with an AGL ID.

View Leaderboards

Fall Leaderboards highlight top statistical performers in hitting, pitching, and defense across all age groups. These rankings are based on stats accumulated from August 15 through January 31 of each season.

To qualify, athletes must be registered Alliance Fastpitch members, and their teams must score and stream games with AthletesGoLive.

Unlike dynamic year-round leaderboards, Fall Leaderboards have set minimum stat requirements:
55 plate appearances (for hitters)
22 innings pitched (for pitchers)

These leaderboards recognize standout performances during the fall season, with Top 10 OPS Leaders, Home Run Leaders, ERA, and other key metrics showcased throughout the year.

View Leaderboards

The Skills Challenge Leaderboards showcase top athletic performances from national and regional events like the AFCS, AFON, and Regional Championships. Athletes compete in categories such as throwing, running, hitting, and more, with stats collected and ranked by age division. The #1 athlete in each division wins a prize from our sponsored partner.

National Awards

Alliance Athletes have the opportunity to be recognized through a robust National awards program all season long. Whether that's through their performance on the field with the Player & Pitcher of the Month Program, in Alliance Fastpitch national tournaments including the AFCS, AFON, Stars of Tomorrow, and the Super Cup Series, or through their work off the field through our Scholar Athlete Awards and Community Spotlights - the player recognition opportunities are endless!

Learn more about each award below, and browse through past winners, too!

Nine Regional Leagues make up The Alliance Fastpitch, and each League has their own awards as well. When a player, coach or team joins the Alliance, they are automatically placed in a Regional League based on their geographic location, making them eligible for both National and Regional awards (when scoring and streaming with AGL).
