After a four-team barnstorming season in 2025, the Athletes Unlimited Softball League is set to start its second season with six teams, including one in Texas.
The Texas Volts will return and play their home games at Dell Diamond in Round Rock and join teams based in Chicago; Durham, North Carolina; Oklahoma City; Portland, Oregon; and Salt Lake City.
“Texas is synonymous with softball excellence at every level,” said Kim Ng, the league’s commissioner.
The Volts start their 25-game season June 9 in Oklahoma City. Their first home game is June 18 against the Utah Talons.
