Why? Because …
We have a great game and we want people to play softball because it offers great value – for example
Can be played in an hour or two. It can be modified for kids and others You can play internationally You can get an education from it You can represent your country You can play with your mates or your family People of all abilities can play It’s game of action It’s challenging and fun There’s a variety of tournaments and competitions ETC
