Fastpitch softball reentry rules?
A player can start, then be taken out, and then reenter the game once.
Example:
Player #5 starts
Player #6 enters and #5 leaves the game

How do you make softball harder?
I have just recently started playing softball and I get my answer from those more experienced. It has been said to place the ball in the freezer for as long as possible. Then, take the ball out and microwave it to shrink the cover tighter around the core. I cannot tell you that this works because I hae never tried it. I would at least think that freezing the ball would be somewhat beneficial but may have some after effects in game play. Trial and error until your comfortable with your method of creating an edge.

Margaret's long playing and coaching career began in Tacoma, Washington, where she has been enshrined in the Sports Hall of Fame.
Yes, however it is not recommended because if the first basemen is on the base while the runner is running and the runner runs into the first basemen there will be no calls made on interference and injury is very possible.
This is why you have the orange/white double first bases in youth softball. The first baseman can actually be called for interference if they are blocking the white base in youth softball just as they can for blocking second or third.

Who is out if 2 players occupy the same base and no one is tagged?
Actually they are both safe... for now, but play is still live. The lead runner is safe. The trailing runner has to go back to his previous base before being tagged out or running out of the baseline. Or, the lead runner has to advance to the next base before being tagged out, leaving the trailing runner safe at the double-occupied base.
What is the average 11u AAU softball pitching speed?
