Perfect Game began laying the foundation for its entry into the softball-playing space in 2019. Since that time, the world's largest youth baseball participation and scouting platform has been putting into place a one-of-a-kind team of experts to oversee an on-field and off-field operational structure that will advance the sport of fastpitch softball in a manner similar to what the organization accomplished for the sport of baseball. For the past 27 years, Perfect Game has helped athletes enhance and improve their skills, with more than 1,600 of them becoming Major Leaguers and thousands more playing minor league baseball and collegiately.

Perfect Game Softball seeks to replicate the baseball model and provide previously unavailable on and off-field opportunities for amateur female athletes, including post-playing career positions within the sport. Among its many features, Perfect Game Softball will host best-in-class events, tournaments and showcases for athletes of all abilities, highlighted by a newly created series of combines. Perfect Game Softball combines will provide participating athletes access to features uniquely designed to help each one of them reach their full potential. One such feature within the combine, is Perfect Game Softball's added educational component in which each athlete participates in a group mentoring session provided by some of the sport's most knowledgeable experts, former collegiate athletes, and coaches.
