The softball competition at the 2022 World Games took place from July 9–13, 2022,[1] in Birmingham in United States, at the University of Alabama Birmingham. Originally scheduled to take place in July 2021, the Games were rescheduled for July 2022 as a result of the 2020 Summer Olympics postponement due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] Softball returned to the official programme of the World Games after nine years of absence.
This tournament also served as the world championship for softball.[3]
