What does a softball coach do?

Softball Coaches serve the same function as the coach of any sports team. They are responsible for training the players on the rules and regulations of the sport, improving their batting, throwing, and running skills, and making sure they are playing to the best of their abilities. While softball teams are usually comprised of women, the coach can be either male or female. Among the duties of a Softball Coach are developing practice drills, teaching players how to work together, and providing direction during competitive games. Other responsibilities may include managing sporting equipment and, for larger leagues, recruiting players.
