About USSSA

Our Philosophy

USSSA believes that all amateur athletes should be given the opportunity to compete in championship events in their chosen sport no matter the level of their abilities, and that they should be allowed to qualify for these events during the playing of the regular season allowing them to make travel and lodging arrangements well in advance.

All championship events should be of the highest quality.

All decisions made by the association will be make with the best interest of the players, coaches, fans and recreation administrators in mind.

HISTORY

USSSA was established in 1968 when it was felt the slow pitch softball program was being neglected by the domination softball association of that time.

After establishing and using rules and procedures that were and still are the benchmark for the other slow pitch associations it was decided that if these Philosophies were so well accepted by the slow pitch softball community they should be just as well accepted by the other amateur sports.

The USSSA was reborn as a multi-sports association.
