ECSA's mission statement, "To Instill Excellence, Community, Sportsmanship, and Acceptance to LGBTQ and Allies Through the Wonder of Softball," drives the operation of the league and stems from ECSA's core values: Excellence: ECSA identifies Excellence as the quality of being distinctly outstanding. Our field of Excellence surpasses the game of softball, as we hold the standard to our leadership, members, relationships, and community. ECSA’s Values of Excellence include integrity, commitment, and the understanding that failure leads to success. Community: ECSA identifies Community as the commonality to be apart of something wonderful. The heart of ECSA, Community is the inner pieces of how the organization thrives.
