The Fallbrook Senior Softball League (FSS), founded in 2000 at Ingold Sports Park, has grown from a small four-team league with minimal resources into a well-organized, self-sustaining senior recreation program. Early seasons relied on donated fields, low fees, shared shirts, and simple rules, but over time the league evolved—expanding its number of seasons, refining rules, and adopting democratic decision-making through a Board of Managers. Throughout its history, the league has sought to keep seniors active, safe, and socially connected, encouraging good sportsmanship and camaraderie while adapting policies to ensure longevity and enjoyment for all players.
For a more in depth version of the league history, you can download this account from our former Commissioner Chuck Mattes.
