Explanation:
The game of softball is similar to baseball but it is played with a larger ball and on a smaller playing field. Softball was invented in Chicago, Illinois in 1887 and was originally an indoor sport. Although it was known by various different names in the beginning, it finally got its official name of 'softball' in 1926. In 1933 a softball tournament at the Chicago World's Fair prompted a lot of interest in the game. That same year the Amateur Softball Association of America was founded. Today the Amateur Softball Association of America governs softball in the United States and also sponsors annual sectional and softball World Series championships. Prior to 2013 the International Softball Federation regulated the rules of play in more than 110 countries. When the World Baseball Softball Confederation was formed in 2013 they took over this role.
