First of all, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused the most significant disruption to recreational sports in the past two years. Until the pandemic is slowing down and the lockdown restrictions are lifted gradually, everyone cherishes the time to exercise. Slow-pitch softball is an outdoor sport that the whole family can participate in together. Slow-pitch softball participants are expected to see the sports events back to life since there are many competitions held in Taiwan and abroad.To understand the development of slow-pitch softball, by constructing measures of leisure motivation, leisure satisfaction and leisure benefits of slow-pitch softball participants in Taichung City, this study explored the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the recreational sport of slow-pitch softball and evaluated suitability of the linear regression model. The results show that the model of leisure motivation, leisure satisfaction and leisure benefit constructed in this study can be used in the prediction and interpretation of slow-pitch softball participants in Taichung City, and there are direct and indirect effects between these three dimensions, which can distinguish the influence level among the facets. In conclusion, this study can offer management opinions and academic implications, and formulates specific and feasible suggestions for the Taichung City Slow-Pitch Softball Committee, Taichung City Government and sports-related counseling units for reference in planning and implementation.
