That is totally awesome that you want to play softball, I love playing softball. As many people said before go for a jog and do some short sprints. Lift weights once or twice a week try to work on your starts like get in a set postition and then have someone yell go and try not to hesitate at all like don't take a step back and then go you have to teach yourself to not even think about it ,but to just go. And to where. just a t shirt and shorts. Maybe even tall socks and sliding pads ( a sliding plad is usually a tall black thing that just slides onto your leg and goes up to the bottom of the knee and is pulled up over the knee when on base) You can usually get these at a sporting goods store.And cleets or tennis shoes good luck!

do some running...it really depends on your current shape. try sprints tho b/c most of the running in softball is all or nothing. (meaning a jog to 1st base won't cut it!) try doing some weights...dont OVER do it tho. go to batting cages if you can, practice with other people trying out and go to conditioning. wear a confy pair of shorts and a tshirt and its better if you show up with someone...it will take away some of the nerves. goodluck! <3

DONT FRET! just wear a old T-shirt and some shorts, make sure you have a glove, they will hve helmets and bats, dont be over prepeard (youll look like a dork,but at least have your gloves, go with friends, or make some some new1s b4 try outs start so you have some 1 to hang with when u feel stupid, but dont worry its not hard youll do fine!

Alright well to prepare your body you obviously need to work out some and eat the right foods to get your energy up. But when you work out, try not to do it like 2 or 3 days before try-outs because you dont want to be too sore. Try lifting weights, and running. For your clothes you should wear a pair of soffees and a tee-shirt with cleats/tennishoes! Hope I helped, xox
