Clinic Structure

Sessions are 105 minutes long. The first 30 minutes focus on high-energy skill stations designed for short attention spans. This is followed by a 75-minute structured Coach Pitch game where the focus remains on participation and movement rather than strict skill execution.

Activities & Instruction

• Throwing & Catching: Using soft, age-appropriate balls. Focus on basic motions like "roll the ball" or "toss and catch."

• Batting: Players will work on proper grip and swing mechanics using a tee before transitioning to hitting coach-pitched balls during the game.

• Base Running: Simple drills like "Red Light, Green Light" to teach running from base to base.

• Fielding: Introduction to picking up ground balls and throwing to a target or coach.

Equipment & Uniform

• Provided: Team shirt and socks.

• Required: Black softball pants, personal glove, and athletic shoes/sneakers.

• Safety: All participants must wear a helmet when batting.

Coaching & Parent Involvement
