softball coach

Team's pitching guide

A softball coach trains and directs players in softball, the variant of baseball played with a larger ball on a smaller field.

The term most often refers to someone coaching youth or amateur teams, particularly girls' and women's leagues where softball predominates: She's been our softball coach for three seasons.

At competitive levels, coaches handle strategy, lineups, and player development.
