Softball

When you play softball there is a lot of different types of gear you need to play depending on your position. Every player needs spikes though.When you're in out field you need an out fielders glove, which is longer also the ball can cradle into the mitt. In the infield, the basemen and the pitcher need an infield glove, which is shorter, so when you get the ball you can just pick it up and throw. The catcher needs the most equipment out of any other player. They need a helmet to protect their head, shin pads, rib pads and or guard, a catchers glove, and a good arm to throwthe ball to all the bases. When you're batting you need a helmet, a bat, and of course a ball. You can use batting gloves if you like, but they are not required. There is a lot of things needed to play the game. What sport do you like to play, and what type of equipment is needed? Are there different things needed for different positions?
