No
No. For 12 years (since 1996) softball was part of the Olympics, but 2008 was the last year it was. It has been removed from the olympic games, and will not be a part of the 2012 London games. Softball is not in the Olympics coming up do to lack of supporters of the sport. It was in the last Olympics but not 2012.

Softball will not be a medal sport at the 2012 Games in London. Both softball and baseball were removed from the medal sports beginning with the 2012 Games.
No, baseball will not be an event at the 2012 Olympics. On July 7, 2005, the International Olympic Committee voted baseball (and softball) out of the 2012 Olympics. The decision to exclude baseball from the 2012 Olympics was again reaffirmed on February 9, 2006. The committee also voted in August 2009 at a meeting in Berlin to exclude baseball from the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.
Softball became an Olympic medal event in 1996. In 2005, the International Olympic Committee voted to drop both Softball and Baseball from the Summer Olympic Games of 2012. Both may reapply for 2016 consideration.
The 2012 Summer Olympics are going to be held in London.
Yes, it's played in the Olympics and in fact it's the only sport that doesn't have a boys division, it's only women softball. Unfortunately, a move was done to remove softball from the Olympic games starting in the 2012 Olympics. There have been efforts to help bring back softball.
It's Crystal Bustos and yes she was on the Olympic softball team. I said "was" because softball is no longer in the Olympics starting in 2012.
