Weather: Hotter weather makes balls softer; cooler weather makes them harder.
Safety: Lower compression/higher COR (like 52/300) balls are safer for beginners or leagues.
Performance: Higher compression/lower COR (like 44/400) balls go farther in competitive and tournament play.
Certification: Make sure you're buying softballs with the proper certification stamps on them (e.g., NFHS, NSA, USA, USSSA) as they will be required for official league and tournament play. Each association has varying COR/Compression standards.
