ABOUT US:

Fastpitch Softball Clinics - Dallas, Fort-Worth Metroplex

Our staff has conducted numerous clinics in the past few years throughout the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex, but due to our current work schedules and summer plans, we have unfortunately not been able to finalize any dates or locations for softball clinics this summer (2007). If there is enough interest, we will look at offerring some clinics in either July or August. Please let us know if you are interested so we can plan accordingly.

Our hitting clinics focus on developing solid hitting techniques and strategy to help prepare players for the next level of play. Our instructors have the knowledge and collegiate level playing experience to help players of any level improve their game.

Instruction will focus on proper fundamentals of hitting with an emphasis on proper mechanics for the beginner, intermediate, and advanced level student. Hitting instruction will be based on the techniques and philosophies used by the University of Texas softball program (3-time College World Series Participants and six NCAA Tournament appearances).
