ISF: International Softball Federation. This is the governing body under whose rules the Olympics are being played! (And, this is a separate entity from the ISC already mentioned above.)

Since you have PONY, TCS and USSSA, all organizations that are not "softball specific" (they run baseball, too, and even some other sports), then you would have to add Little League to the mix.

Another one that falls into the "multiple sport" category, but certainly affects a huge number of softball players, is the NFHS- National Federation of State High School Associations- the governing body of high school softball.

NCAA would fall into that same category. Not a softball organization, rather a sports organization under which softball is played.

Amen to that! I love the fields down there in Pigeon Forge (and Seiverville) and that Nationals is well ran and fun to be part of. Our dd was down there in a couple of years ago in the SEAA Nationals.
Also had the chance to play down there this past spring in an April tournament.
