Slow Pitch Softball
Slow Pitch Softball is a variation of softball where the ball is pitched at a slower speed, allowing batters more time to react. The pitch must arc at least 6 feet high and not exceed 12 feet, making it easier for players to hit the ball. Games typically feature teams of 10 players, and the objective is to score runs by hitting the ball and running around bases.
In Slow Pitch Softball, players use a larger ball than in traditional baseball, usually measuring 30.5 cm in circumference. The game is popular for recreational leagues and tournaments, emphasizing fun and teamwork over competitive intensity.
