Softball Novelty Gifts
If you have a softball player in your life, surprise him with a unique, sports-themed gift. Softball is a sport similar to baseball. The main differences are that the game is played on a smaller diamond than that in baseball, and the softball is a softer, larger ball than a baseball. Also, softball pitches are thrown via a windmilled, underhanded motion, while baseball pitches are thrown overhand.

Customized Jersey
-
Buy a softball jersey or T-shirt and have it customized with the gift recipient's name, team number or the team logo. Use online T-shirt vendors or visit a T-shirt printing business in your area. Most likely, you will pay a higher price for a single T-shirt than you would for a bulk order of shirts.
Softball Training Lessons
-
For the serious softball player, purchase private lessons with a softball coach who can help the player improve her technique and get better at the game. Lessons can come in the form of a weekend workshop, a summer training camp, or individual lessons over the course of a year or a set period. Customize the duration of the lessons based on what the player hopes to achieve.

Personalized Equipment Accessories
-
Purchase several new accessories related to the game and have them personalized. For example, buy a softball equipment bag and have it embroidered with the player's name and number. Purchase a customized glove, made to fit the player's personal preferences. Have a softball bat engraved with the player's name and a special message.
Softball Art and Photography
-
Purchase framed art and photography that showcases various scenes of softball players in action, softballs, or softball fields. Framed art makes a nice addition to a player's bedroom, office or den. Another idea is to purchase a gift certificate from an online art and photography website to be used to purchase a unique softball print that the player likes.
Custom Player Art
-
Select a favorite photo of the softball player in action, and take it to a local artist to have replicated on canvas. The painting can be watercolor, oil, acrylic or mixed media. Softer watercolors may work for a quieter personality, while a mixed media art piece may be of interest to a player who is more bold and exuberant. Try to fit the art to the player's personality.
