Fastpitch softball is a hot topic today. People are acknowledging the sport for its level of competition, advancement in technique, and even women's empowerment. But what do your players know about the history of the sport? The truth is, that depends on who's coaching them and providing solid knowledge of the game.

Check out this infographic that every softball player should add to her repertoire.

There's something about knowing where you've come from in a sport and taking up a certain ownership about continuing that legacy. Educating your players on the history behind softball, inevitably releases pride in what they're doing and thus produces players with a sense of responsibility to the game.

As Lisa Fernandez once said, "We're prepared, and we've done everything we can to prepare for this moment in time. That's what confidence is all about." Take a look to find the stories that best capture the beginnings of the game.
