The softball game Softball is played by nine players in a team. The playing field is divided into the infield which is the lines between the bases and is sixty inches apart, and the outfield which is outside the baseline but inside the playing field. Any ball going outside the first or third base line is a foul ball which means runners cannot advance and the batter gets another try unless the ball was caught in the air, which translates to an out. An official game is seven innings. An inning is done when both teams have had their turn to bat.
Playing softball When playing, always remember that you should keep your eye on the ball. Bend your knees when batting the softball. Don't backtrack; run sort of sideways while tracking the ball with your eyes. Run through first, but don't run through any other base. You can only step on a base and get somebody out when there is a strength or force; otherwise you must tag the runner playing softball.

Offer suitable rewards every time a player does a skill successfully. Review each successful game and compliment the player's effort as much as possible. Set practical goals. The goals must prepare the player for a realistic end. Teach a skill, by starting with the simple activities. Shape their behavior by being an exemplar of a sport player. Communicate with the players like a proficient and a capable coach.
