Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

There is no education required to be a softball coach. My mom was going to be my softball coach at St. Andrews Park and all they did was a background check to make sure that she didn't abuse children, and my mom doesn't abuse children at all. She passed the background check and was my softball coach for the season. There is not really a education required. If you have played softball when you were younger and now want to teach (coach) softball you know what to do and how to do it. If you didn't know about softball then you would want to find out more about softball before you become a coach.
