Answer 1

I would suggest that you join a softball snowflake league.  The best way to learn to play softball is to play softball.  

You can also go the the batting range and practice hitting at various rates of speed.  In your free time, shape up by daily jogs around your local school track.  Some times by being a good runner you can get a double whereas others would only get a single.

Have a catch.  Never underestimate the value of a regular catch.  Every day have a catch with someone and try to field ground balls as well as pop ups.

Good luck in you softball.  I wish you the very best.
