Ladies A Grade

2019/2020

Program Summary

If you enjoy a little competition softball is the game for you! A grade is a grade where our representative players can also play to improve their individual skills. They get to play against women of a higher level challenging themselves playing the game they love. Softball is a game that moves at a faster pace than the game of baseball. A grade female softball pitcher uses an underarm motion with a 12-inch softball. They pitch at 46 feet and can pitch up to 77 miles per hour or 124 km/hr.

Practice Schedule
