Softball leagues are organized groups where teams compete in the sport of softball. These leagues can be found at various levels, including recreational, competitive, and professional, catering to players of all ages and skill levels. Teams typically consist of 10 to 12 players, and games are played on a diamond-shaped field with bases. Leagues often have regular seasons, followed by playoffs to determine champions. Many leagues also promote community involvement and sportsmanship, encouraging players to develop their skills while enjoying the game. Participants can join local leagues through community centers, schools, or sports organizations.
