Softball

Softball is a popular team sport for people of all ages. The game is played on a field composed of four bases, forming a diamond. A softball, bat, gloves, catcher's protective gear, and bases are necessary equipment. A game is played by two teams of up to eleven players, including the Designated Hitter. The game is divided into innings and each team is allowed one at bat per inning and allowed three outs during its turn at bat in any one inning. The team with the greatest number of runs at the end of seven innings is the winner.

Softball is an excellent team activity. It involves a wide range of skills, exercise and coordination, inspires teamwork, range of skills, exercise and coordination, inspires teamwork, and helps develop a sense of sportsmanship which can bring many hours of fun and enjoyment to people of all ages and, with modifications, to people with all disabilities.
