Catching

Catching is a position, besides pitching, that is one of the most dificult positions in softball. You have to have many things to succeed as a catcher. The most important thing is to have a good conection with your pitcher and the rest of your team. You also need to know whats going on in the game, and one that has a voice of incouragement. This position is really hard on your knees sinc you are pretty much squating the whole hour and thirty minutes you are playing. There is so much equipment you have to wear as well; and in the 90 to 100 degree weather it feels like its about a billion degrees in that. This is a main position that not many people could even do, but if you know how to it is a lot of fun to do. Except it is a lot of work trying to stop all the balls you can and throw out all the players that try to steal.
