The objective of the Northampton Baseball & Softball is to instill in the youth of the greater Northampton community a love of the game by building a foundation of baseball and softball skills that will allow for spirited and fair competition. Interns will be a part of the outreach and marketing team, reaching out to the Northampton community recruiting players/families and creating awareness of the programs we offer.
