80027 Softball is a 100% volunteer-run, community-based nonprofit organization dedicated to building girls’ sports in Louisville and Superior while empowering young athletes through the game of softball. Our mission is to create opportunities for girls of all ages and skill levels to learn, grow, and compete in a supportive and empowering environment. Led by Mark Scully, a Louisville resident and passionate leader with over 15 years of success developing youth softball programs. 80027 Softball is more than just a softball organization — it’s a movement to build confidence, leadership, and lifelong skills through teamwork and competition in young women. 

 At 80027 Softball, we believe that the true wins go far beyond the scoreboard. Our program is built around developing the intangibles that create great athletes — and even greater people: effort, attitude, competitiveness, teamwork, and leadership. We want to see more girls outside, playing sports, building friendships, and learning how to face challenges head-on. 

 By experiencing adversity and growth on the field, our players gain the resilience and confidence to handle whatever life throws their way. Through quality coaching, mentorship, and community engagement, we’re building not only strong players but strong young women — ready to take on the field and the world with confidence. Join us in shaping the future of girls’ softball in Louisville and Superior. 

Mandatory Reporter Training 

Starting January 1, 2026, 80027 Softball will require each coach to annually complete mandatory reporter training that follows the guidelines and recommendations made by the Mandatory Reporter Training Task Force. We will also be encouraging each coach to complete an abuse prevention training program to help identify and prevent prohibited conduct by coaches, appropriate one-on-one interactions with players and coaches, how to recognize, respond to, and prevent conduct subject to any policies put in place by 80027 Softball. 

 All coaches will be required to comply with a code of conduct and complete a background check—including screening for felony child abuse and sexual offenses—before they can start working with any teams or kids. Individuals may be disqualified from coaching based on the results of the background check. 

 80027 Softball will implement a policy that lists prohibited behaviors for parents, spectators, coaches, and athletes, including a mandatory reporting policy for those aware of violations. These measures aim to enhance safety and accountability in youth sports by establishing clear guidelines and ensuring coaches are properly vetted and trained.
