教育部體育署有計劃性的推展各項競技與全民運動，其中女子壘球運動為競技運動項目。本文目的旨在透過分析近年來我國女子壘球運動與參加女子壘球國際賽會的成績狀況，探求壘球運動在發展上面臨的問題與挑戰。本研究採用歷史研究法蒐集相關資料。所得到的結論：一、我國女子壘球代表隊在亞洲女子壘球錦標賽連續三屆榮獲第二名，團隊實力超越中國隊，達到亞洲前二強的高峰。二、國內基層女子壘球隊數太少，基層球隊普遍在臺灣西部地區，東部則無基層球隊。尤其，大學女子壘球隊只有四隊，更無業餘女子壘球隊。三、女子壘球運動發展的問題中，有運動人口不足、選手訓練問題、經費有限、與選手就業問題，希望政府有關單位亦或是結合社會資源，來共同解決問題。

In order to promote and develop competitive sports, the popularity of specific sport would contribute to the success of its development. One of the approaches to gain sport popularity in limited time is successful performance in international competition, for example, women softball team is one of the best cases. The purpose of this review article was to re-focus on the performance and challenge of national Taiwan women’s softball team, after the previous article was published (Long, 2006). There are several conclusion could be made. First, Taiwan’s national softball team is one of the best team among Asian. Second, the location of most women softball team are based on west part of Taiwan, there are few in the other area. Furthermore, on the college level, there are only four teams left around the island. Without enough female collage players, no doubts that there is no amateur softball club or team could be established. Lastly, with all the challenge raised above, limited softball promotion budget and feature career perspective arrangement were two of the obstacles to extend territory of participation softball for all.
