The 2010 Softball Winter Blast is a five week camp where players are taught the necessary skills to become softball hitters. Players are divided into small groups and work with professionally trained coaches on the necessary skills and mechanics of hitting. Instruction is specifically tailored to the ability level of each player. This camp is designed to be both fun and educational.
Hitting Camp: For five weeks, hitters are rotated through a series of drill stations that work on the basic and advanced mechanics of the swing. Coaches instruct and work with each kid as an individual. The program is designed to improve players balance, timing, pitch recognition, power, bat speed, and confidence. Bunting is also covered. Hitters are taught an understanding of the swing allowing them to continue to develop on their own. Through repetition, young hitters develop a better base allowing them to hit the ball harder more consistently while older players learn about hitting the ball the other way and hitting off speed pitches more consistently. Each hitter is videoed and is able to see him or herself hit and be evaluated by DartFish, a high speed video analysis computer system.
