High Performance Program (HPP)

Known as The Pipeline to the Women’s National Team, the USA Softball High Performance Program (HPP) will identify a pool of athletes to train, compete and represent USA Softball through domestic and international competition. The program will focus on providing an equal opportunity for players to show their talent while growing the game of softball in the United States and remaining inclusive to all that wish to participate and develop their skills.

The Selection Process

USA Softball is divided into ten (10) regions. Each region will offer competition for pools of athletes through uniform HPP Identifiers run by local coaches and evaluated by USA Softball National Team athletes, alumni, and other professional softball players.

From each Regional Identifier, the top athletes will be notified and invited to advance to the National Selection Event. After which USA Softball will recognize the top athletes for the age-specific Top Performers in the current year. From those top performers, possible invitation to a National Team trial, pool or team participation will be extended based on the calendar of WBSC events.

The Benefits

The opportunity to be evaluated against your peers based on your performance.
Quality competition: Games against other Regional HPP top performers.
Exposure to national team coaches and selection committee members.
The opportunity to represent one’s region or country in competition.
