What is 10U?
This level of play is more competitive than 8U. 10U continues to build on the fundamentals of softball in a fun environment while incorporating a high level of physical activity. There are a few notable changes your player will see when moving up. 10U is player pitch, the field is slightly bigger, the balls go up to an 11 inch outdoor ball, and there will be an umpire behind home plate.
