Adult softball is a recreational team sport played by adults, typically in a league format. It involves two teams, each taking turns to bat and field. The game is played on a diamond-shaped field with bases, and the objective is to score runs by hitting a pitched ball and running around the bases. Games are usually played with a larger ball than traditional baseball, and the rules can vary by league. Adult softball is popular for its social aspect, allowing players to enjoy friendly competition and camaraderie with teammates and opponents alike. Many communities have local leagues for adult softball enthusiasts.
