What is softball?

Softball is a sport that uses bats and balls. The balls are called softballs. Softball is like baseball but the pitcher pitches differently. We use metal bats and baseball uses wooden bats.

The history about softball.

Softball was invented in Chicago in 1887. The person who invented it was George Hancock. He died in 1899. George Hancock was the first person ever to play softball and now everyone plays it. Softball is a really fun game to play. The New Zealand Black Sox softball team won the softball world cup this year so our team is the best in the world.

Softball gear

The softball gear is bats, balls, helmets, Catchers gear and gloves. They play on a field called a diamond which has four bases. First base is white and red and the second and third bases are just red. Home base is black and that is the base that you start on.

How are Softballs made?

Hitting tips.

1. Hit between your waist and chest
2. Hit it when it goes over the home plate
3. Swing and put your foot in front of you
4. When you get three strikes and the Catcher misses the ball when you try and hit it you run as fast as you can to first base
