Agnes, A.J.

The plaintiff is a coach of a girls’ softball team which plays in a league organized and administered by the defendant Youth Sports Association Purchasing Group (hereafter, “Association”). The plaintiff alleges that he was injured as a result of the Association’s negligence during a softball game in which the coaches participated as players. The Association has filed a motion for summary judgment in which it maintains that it did not breach a duty of care owed to the plaintiff, and, in any case, it is immune from liability for negligence claims under G.L.c. 231, §85V.
