The Portland Cascade has begun building its 2027 roster.
Cascade players who are offered contracts will re-sign throughout the next month. The group may include players who competed with Portland during the 2026 season as well as provisional selections from the 2026 Athletes Unlimited Softball League College Draft.
Players who were not offered returning contracts remain eligible for selection in the Allocation Draft this winter and may also join the Reserve Athlete Pool.
