Of course, there are still some things you should be aware of if you want to make sure you give your baller the best gift possible this season. That’s why we put together our softball player gift guide, so your shopping will be easy and your gift receiver will be happy!
Bats
If your player is looking for a new bat, there are many options out there. Firstly, you want to make sure they will be able to swing the bat. It would be best to check with your players coach or trainer as to which bat would be best for them. Secondly, the player needs to decide what type of bat they want. Composite bats are typically on the expensive side but can provide more "pop" allowing your player to hit the ball further. Alloy/Aluminum bats have a lightweight feel but offer less pop than composite bats do. No matter your budget Smash It Sports has you covered with bats up to 20% off!

A good pair of batting gloves can be one of the most important pieces of equipment a softball player has. This is because they provide extra grip and padding on the palms to help prevent blisters. There are many different styles and brands to choose from, so it can be difficult to decide which pair is best.

Fielding Gloves
All softball gloves are not created equally. Middle infielders need a different glove than outfielders. The first baseman and the catcher each have their own mitts to pick from, and outfielders would definitely struggle using a glove made for middle infielders. Finding the best glove for your position is an important part of playing the game, and it’s something that all serious ball players need to do if they want to ensure they’re set up for success. Smash It Sports can help get you set up!
