Tuesday Night FREE Skills Clinics with Open Gym for Pitching
Sponsored by EP Fastpitch
These are free weekly mini clinics instructed by volunteer Eden Prairie high school softball players with parent participation. Each week focuses on specific fundamentals and drills for various aspects of softball. (For example, week one focuses on infield, week two hitting and so on.)
Recent changes: Also incorporated into these clinics are tips and drills that will prep players for travel tryouts this winter. Clinics are now one hour long per age group, followed by one hour of open gym for pitching.
