Seems that if the Chinese had a softball calendar, this was the year of the Slow Pitch.
There are 11 changes that Irish listed below, and 6 of those 11 are changes for SP only. The remaining 5 changes affect all levels of softball. Not a single FP-specific change.
I know a lot of players who will be happy with these changes. As a primarily SP umpire, I'm glad to see a bit of focus devoted to SP this year. The program has had some difficulties as of late, and I think these changes are all positive ones for the program.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
