The latest issue of Softball Magazine (“The Sports Illustrated of Softball”) is out on newstands and includes Fastpitchwest’s feature story on the 2008 ISF Junior Men’s World Championships, held in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada earlier this year, “G’day for Gold”.

The magazine has a new printer doing their work, and the results are dramatic. Maddy’s full color photos that accompany the story “pop” off the pages. If you don’t subscribe, but want to, click here for more information. Since 2004, the magazine has included regular features on men’s fastpitch, including the AAU, Red Rock, Rose Cup, ISC and ISC II tournaments, and special features like the current one on the ISF Jr. Worlds and the Texaco Pirates tournament in the Bahamas.

If you want to get your hands on a copy of the latest issue, you can send a self-addressed stamped envelope (about $3.00 worth of U.S. postage), to Fastpitchwest, PO Box 961, Los Alamitos, CA 90720.

Past features from Fastpitchwest published in the magazine can be viewed by clicking the “Softball Magazine” menu button on our website, or directly, here. (Give the pages a little time to load, as the full color PDF’s are large files)
