LSA is eastern Iowa’s premier LGBTQ+ Softball League and was founded in the Fall of 2017. LSA is a non-profit 501(c)3 and is committed to providing opportunity and a safe space where both LGBT and Non-LGBT participants can compete in an environment welcoming and open to the LGBTQ+ community. Participants must be 18+ and pay league fees for each season. Games are played Sunday Mornings from 10:00am-1:00pm at either the Hawkeye Softball Complex or Mercer Park in Iowa City. We have 2 seasons (Spring/Summer and Fall) that run from late April to late October. 

See you at the ball field!

We have games again this coming Sunday 5/22. Please watch for the schedule here in the next few days, and our coaches will be reaching out to their teams as well.

Our league play will start next Sunday 5/1 and we would love to see you then, we still have spots for each and every one of you.

For any other concerns please send us an email at steven.lsaiowa@gmail.com and we'll work with you individually. The most important thing is to get you on a team and get you out there next Sunday.
