There is a WMBA, but why isn't there a pro softball association?

There is a professional softball league - National Pro Fastpitch.  They currently have 7 teams: the Connecticut Brakettes, Akron Racers, Arizona Heat, Chicago Bandits (Jennie Finch plays for them), New England Riptide, Philadelphia Force, and Texas Thunder.  They're hardly household names, but the league is expanding.

I totally agree as long as an equal substitute is available for women. I prefer to play sports with the girls and save other activities for the boys ;0) My man plays on his softball team and I play on mine and when we want to play together we join a co-ed but it would be dumb to try to get on a men only team!@! Hints the name MEN'S TEAM!!!!!! Some women just have "penis envy" Dont hold it agains the rest of us!

i don't know who you talked to, but most softball players are not gay. i have been involved with softball since i was four and have only met 1 gay player.

Pretty much because they ran out of funds.  I've included some recent chats about the PWBA.\n\nMatt

COZ, THEY CANT PREPARE A PITCH TO ASSIST THEM.\n\nTHE SOLUTION IS, THE MUST SPEND MORE AND MORE TIME IN PRACTICE.\nBUT THEY MIGHT EARN MORE MONEY IN AD STUDIOS, THAN PRACTICING.

I absolutely agree with you! Softball is harder than baesball sometimes!!!!  I have no idea why it isn't considered a sport, because it's not at my school.  Someone needs to write a letter!  lol

There is a difference between a softball and a baseball. The softball is the big, soft one and the baseball is the little hard one.

i do, i have played fastpitch for half of my life.  i am 14 and have played since i was 7.  i am going to try out 4 high school ball next year.  softball is the best sport out there, y do they not have a softball part of this site. they have baseball.  i guess they think baseball is more important, which is wrong, i hate it when softball gets seconded to baseball.  it just aint fair.  but i still lvoe it. how about u, u like fastpitch?

There ain't no such animal as an "Umpire License". Umpires are registered, and may become certified at different levels, and associations. \n\nWhat do you want to Umpire? softball, baseball, or other sport? also what level? rec league, high school, travel ball, college, pro baseball?\n\nI can give you some names in the VA area, but really need some specifics of what you want. You can always go to a game (type and level you want to work) and after the game ask the Umpires how you can get started. \n\nBefore you do anything though, you ought to have a good psychological evaluation! Why would anyone in their right mind actually want to Umpire? Just kidding of course. I have umpired BB, and SB up to college level, and love it!

There is no comprehensive NCAA softball schedule, as the NCAA itself has no role in scheduling other than rule limits on number of games played. The only thing the NCAA schedules is the postseason tournament, which can be found on the softball page at NCAA.org (although there isn't much info as most early round sites and none of the teams have not been set).\nAs far as finding schedules, you are best checking individual schools and sometimes conferences, which will at least list all league games (although that is hit or miss by conference).\nGood luck.

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think there is.  However, if you look throughout the Hampton Roads area, there has got to be some teams around.  Best of luck to you.
