We will share with the athletes what it takes to play at an elite level and also offer to them the unique opportunity of being mentored by and working closely with current and former college coaches and athletes. Our goal is to not only develop the skills of our athletes but also to develop character and work ethic within our athletes. Because we anticipate campers having different levels of skills and abilities, softball goals, and overall camp desires, we will offer free time in which campers can choose to get additional work in with our coaches and instructors or use the time to do non-softball activities if desired. We want this to be a special experience for our campers so anything additional that we can do to make this camp memorable please feel free to let us know

All parents, family members, coaches etc are welcome to observe camp at any time. Please introduce yourself to Joni Frei on your way in. All camp coaches and instructors will stay on location with campers and act as chaperones. There will be a BBQ on Friday night at Sutherland Park. All parents, family and friends are welcome to join us and use the grill. The BBQ will be followed by the opportunity to watch the FALCONS BASEBALL TEAM play at Elk Stadium. Sutherland Park: Located at the corner of Broadway Ave & Ellis St. Please note that we will do our very best to ensure that campers are put on teams with their friends. However, this may mean that campers have a little less time in their primary positions. Example: 4 girls request to be on the same team and all girls are pitchers and also play short-stop. Additionally all girls are above skill in their respective age group so they are assigned to an older team. If there are any issues with team assignments campers are encouraged to bring this attention to Camp Director, Joni Frei immediately so we can make the necessary changes.
