r/slowpitch rules, stats, and what to post

This is a community for softball playing Redditors who want to talk about slowpitch softball. The description says any and all topics relevant to the sport are welcome, and it names equipment, strategy, and advice as the core subjects. Advice can cover any governing body of softball, and the description calls out USSSA, ASA, and NSA as examples. The community also keeps a stats workbook, a USSSA rulebook, an ASA rulesbook, and an NSA rulebook linked for members to use. One thing worth noting for anyone with something to sell, the description points people to a Facebook group for deals, selling gear, and shenanigans, so commerce has a separate home. There are no published rules on the rules page, and the description itself says rules will be created as the community sees a need for them.

With no published rules, the description is your guide. A good post here is about slowpitch softball in a real way. Share something useful about equipment, like what has worked for you and why. Talk strategy, or ask a genuine question about it. Give advice, or ask for it, and feel free to reference the governing bodies like USSSA, ASA, or NSA since the description explicitly welcomes those topics. If you have built something that helps softball players, the respectful move is to join the conversation first, share knowledge with no strings attached, and only mention your thing when it genuinely answers someone's question. Keep selling out of the subreddit, since the description points that activity to the Facebook group.

Because there are no written rules, the honest answer is that nothing specific is stated to get posts removed or people banned here. The description still gives you a clear line to stay on the right side of. Posts should be relevant to slowpitch softball, covering things like equipment, strategy, or advice. The description also sends selling and deal hunting to the linked Facebook group, so treating the subreddit as a marketplace looks off even without a rule saying so. With no published rules to lean on, moderators would judge a post by whether it fits the topic, so anything that reads as generic promotion with no connection to the sport is the obvious risk.

This is one of the rare communities with no published rules at all, and the description even says rules will be created only as the community sees a need for them. That tells me the room runs on relevance rather than rule enforcement, so a lazy promo post would stand out badly here. I also like that the description routes selling and deals to a Facebook group, which keeps the subreddit itself focused on talking about the game.
