Walker’s softball program competes in the Founders League and in the Western New England Prep School Girls Softball Association (WNEPSGSA). Despite Walker’s size (designated a Class B school), the team competes against many of the Class A schools on an annual basis, including Westminster, Choate, and Taft. Their schedule also includes Class B opponents like Kingswood Oxford, Wilbraham-Monson, and Miss Hall’s.
