SP vs. FP

What level and gender of FP are you doing? When I was in Houston, they rarely played 7 innings of a slow pitch game in 1 hour and never in girls fast pitch.

After doing men's fast pitch, it is a bore to do girls most of the time. It takes longer between each pitch, between innings. It is slow. The men's I did could almost play 7 innings in 75 minutes. The game was fast and interesting. I was lucky since I was doing 40 and over and some open ball.
ronald,
If they are taking too much time between innings and pitches,
then that is the umpires fault. Use the 20 secs. on pitcher,
and the one minute from the last out. Really speeds the game up.
I did a 4A playoff game from first pitch to last pitch, full 7
innings in 56 mins. Have had several in just a couple of minutes
over 1HR.
