USA Softball Testing & Certification Program
USA Softball has taken great strides to protect the integrity of the sport. Each year, the USA Softball's equipment testing and specifications committee examines the current rules and specifications governing various items of equipment. This committee makes recommendations to the USA Softball's council comprised of USA Softball commissioners, select youth and player representatives, umpire-in-chiefs, elite athletes and other affiliated members. The council is the ultimate decision maker of USA Softball rules and regulations regarding equipment.
