Coach Spotlight

"I came to WGFSA as a parent volunteer and stayed as a coach for fifteen years. The girls who come through this program don't just learn to play — they learn how to compete, collaborate, and carry themselves with pride. That's what keeps me showing up every season."

Coach Maria Espinoza

Head Coach, 14U Division · 15 Seasons with WGFSA

"My daughter started in the 8U division not knowing how to hold a bat. Two seasons in, she's leading her team in RBIs and asking to practice every weekend."

Jennifer Nakamura

Parent · 8U Division

"Playing in WGFSA gave me the confidence to try out for my high school varsity team as a freshman. The competition in Fall Ball prepared me more than anything else could have."

Aaliyah Torres

Alumni Player · 16U Alum

"Sponsoring WGFSA is the most direct investment we make in the Woodland community. You see the impact every Sunday at the fields — it's real, it's tangible, and it matters."
