ABOUT THE CLINIC...
It has been said that hitting is 90% mental and 10% physical. It has been my observation for the past 30 years that hitting a softball is 90% physical and 10% mental. Hitting is a very difficult skill to teach. The success rate in hitting is considered three hits in every 10 at bats for a .300 batting average. Teaching the art of hitting has evolved and changed over the years. We want to bring some of those theories, ideas and instruction to you.

National Sports Clinics is conducting a two-day hitting clinic for softball coaches at all levels of the game. We have an outstanding lineup of instructors with an impressive range of experience and success. They will offer you instruction, tips and ideas that you will be able to use to improve your offensive game.

Our instructors will teach you the mechanics and breakdown of the swing, the mental aspects of hitting, recognizing problems and developing solutions to help your athletes, take part in panel discussions on hitting and much more.

You won't want to miss this opportunity to learn more about the art of hitting, or to reinforce what you already know. I hope to see you there!
