   For softball you should get in shape for tryouts, and you should not go in rusty., You will need bat bags, a helmet, a bat, a glove, a water bottle, batting gloves, a face guard, a mouth guard to start with., Short and a t-shirt is all you need, but sliders and long socks are good to have too.
   
   If you make the school team you will need these too.
   
   Sometimes it is good to have knee pads for sliding.
