If you have been looking for a program to help you accurately score a softball game, your search is over! 

The NFCA Softball Scoring Seminar is a new, useful tool for the fastpitch softball community. During every fastpitch softball game, someone is behind the scenes keeping score. It is our goal at the NFCA to develop relevant programs to grow the game and "How do we score a softball game?" is a question continually asked by many people involved in the sport. We created this course to provide an avenue for interested parties to learn to score correctly.

This project originated from our NFCA All-American committees as consistent and accurate scoring is critical to ensure a quality selection process.  It is designed for coaches, sports information personnel, players, parents, and anyone else who wants to learn how to accurately score a game. 

We invite you to watch this collection of videos and presentations created by various scoring experts from across the country.
