Slowpitch Softball
Slowpitch Softball is a variation of traditional softball where the ball is pitched at a slower speed, typically around 10 to 12 miles per hour. This allows players more time to react and hit the ball, making it accessible for players of all skill levels. The game is usually played with a larger ball than standard baseball, which also contributes to its unique playing style.
In Slowpitch Softball, teams consist of 10 players, and the game is played on a diamond-shaped field similar to baseball. Each team takes turns batting and fielding, with the objective of scoring runs by hitting the ball and running around bases. The slower pitch speed encourages a more relaxed and social atmosphere, making it popular for recreational leagues.
