Fast Pitch Rule Changes and Updates:

The 2011 Fast Pitch Nationals will return to Virginia Beach, VA July 20-24th.  You can begin blocking these dates and we'll have more information posted in the days ahead.  We have some exciting plans.

"We had some good feedback from the teams that competed in 2010 and we're happy to take our national championship event back to the beach for 2011", said Butch Tiller, president of the organization.

It was our best Nationals yet and we think 2011 will bring even more teams with even better competition.  So mark your calendars for July 20-24 in Va Beach, VA.

Rule Changes:
Much of the talk surrounded pitching distances.
For 2011 the pitching distances will be as follows:


14u, 16u and 18u teams will pitch from 43 feet.

12u teams will pitch from 40 feet.

10u teams will pitch from 35 feet.

Lineup:
Teams are now allowed to bat as many as 12 batters.

Metal Cleats:
are allowed for 14u and up, providing the field allows them.

Thanks to all the teams that participated in the 2010 SoftballNation Fast Pitch Nationals.  It was a great tournament with some great competition.  We look forward to having you again in 2011.
    The Friday Night Party Cruise (pictured left) was also a big hit.  If you missed that, you missed a great time.
