Safety/Food/Drinks: Please check the weather forecast and dress appropriately.We strongly recommend that all participants bring a water bottle or thermos (1 to 2 qt) with them during the clinic, along with a healthy snack if needed. There are scheduled breaks throughout the event, but they will need to be constantly drinking as they move between drills and activities. Also remember sunscreen, and a hat or visor. Sunglasses are also recommended.
Spectating: Parents and siblings can watch the activities from outside the fences around the fields. There are covered bleachers on both fields, but you may want to bring your own folding chairs. We are limiting on-field personnel to the instructors and helpers.
Equipment: The girls should wear cleats if they have them. If not, wear comfortable athletic shoes with a tread. Some girls may be wearing softball socks and shin guards. Each participant will need their own glove. We strongly recommend each participant bring their own batting helmet (with face mask), we will have a few from the equipment cage for those that don't have their own. Each participant should bring their own bat if they have one, but there will be plenty to share. If you have not bought a bat yet, do not purchase one for this clinic. Wait to talk to a coach about the proper length and weight for your daughter. Make sure all of your belongings are labeled.
