Overview

Mission

USA elite softball aspires to be an outstanding educational, athletic organization that provides a high quality experience, including tournament play and training in which every athlete: 1) learns the skills, tactics and strategies of the game in total and improves as a player, and 2) learns "life lessons" that have value beyond the playing field.

What it reported doing in 2020

To provide softball players with the uniforms, equipment, and playing opportunities to foster a culture in which coaches, parents and athletes can work together to achieve our mission. This program benefit approximately 140 athletes.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
