Coaches are ready
Liverpool Softball League coach Steve Shearer says he is ready for a “normal” season.

What is Softball?
Softball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of 10 players. It is similar to baseball.
Softballs are larger than baseballs, and the pitches are thrown underhand rather than overhand.
Softball is played on a smaller diamond than in baseball.
Despite the game’s name, the standard softball is not so soft – in fact, it is harder than a baseball!
