Softball is a fast-moving relative of baseball, played with a larger ball on a smaller pitch. If you already enjoy rounders, you will find many familiar elements: one team bats and runs around the bases to score, while the fielding side tries to catch balls and get batters and runners out.
The sessions are built for beginners. The club says newcomers who don't know the sport or its rules are welcome, and that both coaches and players help new arrivals find their feet. Training is good for hand-eye coordination, cross-body movement and the mental side of the game.
Equipment is provided, so children only need clothing suited to the season. Training is indoors until early April and moves outdoors from April until the end of September.
