About the SCSL — Est. 1963

📜 Admin — Edit History & About Text
➕ Add Timeline Milestone

Since 1963, the SCSL has been the heartbeat of slow pitch softball in Fall River. Founded by Jack Hackett and kept alive by a community of players, managers, umpires, and volunteers — wooden bats, chalk lines, and all.

The SCSL uses wooden bats by design. More competitive. More honest. The field at Fr. Kelly Park — now officially named the Jack Hackett Softball Field — has seen thousands of games, hundreds of Hall of Famers, and six decades of community bonds built between the chalk lines.

League Milestones

1963
SCSL founded by Jack Hackett at Fr. Kelly Park, Fall River, MA. The first season of what would become a 62-year tradition.
1980s
Jack brings Natalie Hackett into the league. Together they manage everything — grading the infield, chalking lines, emptying barrels.

"He got me involved in the mid-80s and we did everything together. He took immense pride in assuring that His Field was always in game ready condition." — Natalie Hackett

1998
Al Pinel inducted into the SCSL Hall of Fame. Outstanding outfielder of the 80s and 90s. Voted in by his peers.
2020s
SCSL/AXIS Wooden Bat Night League formalized. While other area leagues close down, the SCSL grows — 14 teams in 2025, including 5 new teams.
2021–2025
Jack Hackett spends 4 years applying for and securing a $140,000 grant for solar-powered metal light poles and a new electric scoreboard — both completed for the 2025 season.
2025
The field at Fr. Kelly Park is officially named the Jack Hackett Softball Field. Hall of Fame ceremony held June 22 — 10 inductees including Dan Conceicao and Randall Thornton.
Dec 27, 2025
Jack Hackett passes away after 55 seasons of service. The league he built continues under the care of Natalie Hackett and the SCSL Officers.

"So when you come to His Field to play a game or to watch one, look up at the lights and scoreboard and say: Thank you Jack, for all you have done for this Field, the League, and the game of Softball." — Natalie Hackett

2026
62nd season begins. The SCSL carries forward Jack's legacy — same field, same wooden bats, same community heart.

Jack Hackett 🕯️

Director & Founder · 1963–2025 · 55 Seasons of Service · Passed December 27, 2025

Jack gave unselfishly from his heart, his talent, his time, and his love of the game. He ran this league for over 50 years. He got me involved in the mid-80s and we did everything together — working the field, emptying barrels, cleaning the mats, putting up signage, keeping the Standing's Board, the dugout boards, the chalk lines.

He took immense pride in assuring that His Field at Fr. Kelly Park was always in game ready condition. His greatest accomplishment was a 4-year endeavor — he applied for and was rewarded a $140,000 grant for new solar-powered metal light poles and a new electric scoreboard. Both completed for the 2025 season.

So when you come to His Field to play a game or to watch one, look up at the lights and scoreboard and say: "Thank you Jack, for all you have done for this Field, the League, and the game of Softball."

R.I.P. You will be greatly missed. 1–4–3, Natalie.
