Learn more about slowpitch

Slowpitch is a popular variation of softball characterized by a slower, underhand pitching style that makes the ball easier to hit. Unlike fastpitch softball, where pitches are thrown quickly and with more speed, slowpitch pitchers deliver the ball in a high, arching trajectory, allowing batters more time to swing. This style of pitching emphasizes hitting, fielding, and strategy rather than pitching speed or strikeouts. Slowpitch softball is often played recreationally by adults and in community leagues, making it accessible for players of varying skill levels and ages. The game typically involves teams of ten players and is played on a diamond-shaped field with bases. Slowpitch promotes fun, teamwork, and social interaction.
