Because it is a longer throw from third to first and the first basemen is more likely to miss the ball

What is a base coaches job?
A base coaches job in baseball is to give signals to the runners of what to do for example stealing, stopping at that base, going to the next base, or sliding. there is a base coach for first base and there is one at third base. if the runner is on second they would listen to the third base coach.
What is the rule if a coach whos team is up to bat base runners on second and third mistakenly thinks the second out was the third out and tells his team go back to the dugout?
Well,the baserunner on first might know that there is 2 out instead of 3 and tell the coach.In the Major League,a coach usually wouldn't make that mistake,in Little Leagues,the umpire would simply tell the kids to get back to their bases.

What does force third base mean in softball?
force to 3rd base means that when there are runners on 1st and 2nd and they are being forced to run to the next base ( in this case 2nd would be forced to 3rd) and all you have to do is step on the base, not having to tag the runner. this can also happen with a force to 2nd.

If a runner is on third and the batter hits himself with the ball and the ball is dead can the runner go to next base?
No. You answered your own question. The ball is dead if it comes into contact with the batter. Play should immediatly halt. I can see in softball, if the fourth ball is pitched and it hits the player, and is counted as a ball, then both runners would move. Of course if the runners on base are forced runs. Aside from that. I cant see a scenario where the runner would move bases based on a dead ball.
What do they do to get in the softball team?
You would usually tryout for a team, unless a coach saw you play in a game on another team and invites you to come play on the team without a tryout.
What are the basic skills in softball and its meaning?
The basic skills in softball are catching, throwing, hitting and base running. The strategies would depend on the coach but what every player should know is the different game situations during a softball game and the strategy would be the coach's way of playing each situation. The situations may be a man on 1st, 2nd or 3rd, others would be runners on multiply bases like runners on 1st & 2nd, 1st & 3rd, 2nd & 3rd or full bases. You should know when to execute a force play or tag play or where to throw the ball.
What education is needed to be a professional softball player?
There is no special kind of education to be a softball player, just find a good coach who can teach you the basics correctly. Make sure you get the mechanics of catching and throwing, fielding, batting a baserunning correctly. The rules and the technicalities of the game are a must. The best way to learn is to watch actual games and try to understand it. When you don't understand terms, look it up in books or the net.
