Echoes was founded in 1985, in Omaha, Nebraska.  Since it's inception the goals of the club have been:

• ​To train girls to be elite softball players, capable of earning College scholarships
• To teach girls the principals of dedication, perseverance and teamwork
• To encourage girls to participate in community service 

We believe the key to long-term sustainable success is building teams and developing the players on our roster, not just recruiting new players. We will stick with our players and not simply try to recruit another, better player to replace you as soon as we have talked you into joining our roster.

Echoes teams consistently receive invitations to the nation's top tournaments and college showcases, including Colorado Fireworks, Colorado Independence Day and St. Louis Showcase.

Once there, Echoes teams compete on the main complexes and in the top pools against the best teams. As a result, Echoes players learn to compete at the highest national level and receive college exposure opportunities.

Over the last five years our club has seen growth with the addition of multiple teams at several age levels.  That said, we will continue to emphasize quality over quantity in our growth. We do not believe in fielding multiple teams in every age group that lack a strong commitment to compete at the highest national/regional level.

Echoes Athletic Association is a non-profit 501c3 organization. 

The Echoes Fast Pitch Softball Organization of Papillion, Nebraska is honored to award one (1) scholarship in the amount of $1,500.00. Deadline to apply is April 15, 2023.
