Start with people you know....I coach a women's leagur softball team in KY. If this is your first time coaching, sometimes the parks or recreation centers will give you names of people who play....Also, here, we can go to the park on ANY saturday and there are tons of people just playing ball for fun. Talk to some of them too.

Try writing care of their teams or leagues.  They have people in the mailrooms to route the mail to the athletes.  All have websites and are listed in almanacs, etc

Slo-pitch softball pitchers toss from 35 feet to 55 feet from the plate.\n\nFast pitch distance is usually 40 ft for women and 43 feet for men.

I am on a 14 and under softball league. I play on Veasey Cove Venom in Chesapeake City and Cecilton Maryland and we just got done doing a fundraiser. We earned a ton of money by selling pizzas and cakes. Everyone loves food! We also sold t-shirts with the team name on it and made about $300. I hope this helps you because these fundraisers allowed us to enter 2 more tournaments and have some leftover. Good luck! You can visit our website at www.vcvenom.org.

http://www.softballoutlet.com/ has cards, thought they don't have much but they might put out some more. I think that's really the only place you can buy softball trading cards other than maybe ebay.

Maybe the website of the Amateur Softball Association could help you out.

Call your team "The Other Team." We did that for our softball team. It was a riot.  \n\n"Who's winning?" "The Other Team."\n\nYou get the idea.

Here's a link to some very informative fast pitch material which, in chart form, nicely presents situations for a pitcher and recommended pitch types and placement. I'm sorry, it is much too detailed to recap for you here, but I recommend that if you are serious about being an effective fast pitch chucker, you place the link in your favourites or print it out. ty.

Evaluate your lineup and player attributes. Place the best contact hitters and speed runners near the top of the lineup and play small ball to score runs early. Be aggressive on the bases and try to steal often. Most pitchers won't expect it, or might make a bad throw to the base, either way you advance the runners. Teach the hitters to work the count and take pitches. Most pitchers will not get the ball over the plate everytime. You can get more walks and increase the pitch count on the opposition which will force them to go to the bullpen. Play the outfield deep so they can run toward the ball if it is hit shallow, it is much harder to run backwards and catch a pop fly. Teach pitchers two good pitches and make them stick with it. A decent breaking ball in would very difficult for most 16 yr old hitters to make contact with. Even if the breaking ball ends up in the dirt , they will swing. I could be more specific if you gave more detail on the team's weaknesses.

Try volunteering for something in your community. Go to the library. Join a gym. Ask your friends to set you up on dates. Play a co-ed recreation sport like softball. Elections are on the way. Volunteer your time to a candidate that you like. You will meet many new people that way. Just think outside the norm. Do things that you enjoy and eventually you could meet a woman that enjoys the things you do.

If you really mean softball (and not baseball), there are typically 10 players in the field, not nine.  \n\nThe infield is the same as regular baseball: \n-pitcher - pitches the ball to the batter, located on the mound in the middle of the infield, will sometimes cover first base in the even of a ground ball to the right side\n-catcher - receives the ball from the pitcher, croutches behind home plate, covers home\n-first - covers the area around first base, covers the bag especially on groundballs to get the runner out\n-second - covers the area on the left side up the middle, sometimes covers second base in the event of a steal or possible double play\n-third - covers the area around third base\n- shortstop - compliment to the second baseman on the left side of the infield, also covers second in the event of a stolen base or double play\n\nThe difference between baseball and softball is in the outfield.  You typically see one of two set-ups: \n1) left, left-center, right-center, and right fielders, - all of these patrol their given area of the outfield\nOR \n2) left, center, right and short fielder (who plays a short outfield and shades on the side of second base where the batter would hit normally, i.e. right field for a lefty and left field for a righty, also called a rover).
