Abstract

Twenty-eight million Americans played organized softball in 1981. One out of every ten Americans belonged to some team, in some league, at some level; from California to New York, from Michigan to Florida. The Amateur Softball Association of America promotes softball as the most popularly played team sport in the United States. But softball's popularity is not limited to this nation. Since World War II countries of every size and from every hemisphere have played softball for sport and recreation.
