We wrapped up on Friday our rankings of the top 18U club teams in the country and look forward to the PGF Shootout this weekend where seven of the top 10 teams will play.

But there aren't just 50 elite teams: as softball continues to grow, there are many excellent club programs across the country and below we list the ones we think have the best chance to crack the FAB 50 by the end of next summer's nationals.

And who knows… maybe one of these teams will end up winning it all in 2017!
