You'll be surprised how many US-girls (or young ladies) are playing in Europe.
If you're going for a military post.The US bases have often their own team('s) and competition(s).
Here are some helpfull links:
Deutscher Baseball & Softball Verband eV -*DBV
European Softball Federation | Growing Softball Throughout Europe
Koninklijke Nederlandse Baseball en Softball Bond
Stuttgart is in the south (SW) of Germany, so France, Belgium, Switzerland and the Netherlands are all "close" by (<500km). TOP FP softball in Europe for females is played in the Netherlands and Italy. For men it's in the Czech-Republic and Denmark.
I love to see you in Holland... |
