Is it costly: no not really if you have a pay to play policey at your school then that might cost a little but all you really need to buy is a glove, bat, helmit, and bag and as you get better and need more things you can get the other stuff so you can get to the next level

Scholarship: if you go to a school that is well known for softball a scout may come and look at your team for players to get scholarships for college teams but most girls get looked at in the summer on their travel teams when college coaches have time to see young girls after their season is over if you want a scholarship you will need to work hard!
good luck!

My district is crazy good at sports we have basketball, football, soccer, track and field (really just softball throw nothing else for field), and volleyball teams for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders, they train the 8th graders hardcore for high school varsity. We are trained since elementary school for sports like thats the biggest thing we have sports. We are the best in sports in our area and my friend and i were joking around one day and I said "hey i bet if we added Quidditch we’d be awesome at that too!" Now my friend wants to add Quidditch the muggle version. There are rules for like no joke could we get it or is like too many sports for our district (we do EVERY sport except cricket and croquet cause we’re American) would they let us? We would probably dominate at it we have huge HP fans.
we have tennis and its the best in our region(of course) and same with competitive cheer. and we’re in a 35A school it’s pretty big
we tried to have a quidditch team at my school, but not enough people showed up for the initial thingy, so it disbanded:(
BUT, my school is really small, so it could just be that. but we werent gonna have real matches, just scrimmages against ourselves… so i dunno if you could do it.
also my school is really open to new ideas/clubs, so idk if yours would be so allowing…
good luck though! quidditch sounds like it would be awesome!
Every time i look at a Sport category i never see Softball. Come on people its a real sport!!
Because people are dumb
