This is one of the reasons I so love fastpitch softball. I have yet to see an instance of bench clearing, spike up, or any of the other ‘rough and tumble’ crap that baseball produces. These young women learn to compete, do their best, and respect each other. This is what builds character
I played organized fast pitch softball for 20 years. I was still learning things about life from it in my 40s.
It’s a great game.
