What to expect at a softball clinic
Clinics are offered as both one-on-one training and small group lessons. They provide a chance to sharpen your skills in preparation for playing in front of coaches.
The format usually includes multiple stations focused on individual skills, such as base stealing, hitting, pitching, and catching. While colleges do offer clinics, athletes can also find clinics close to home for a low fee.
FAQs
Are softball clinics better than camps?
It really depends on your goals. Clinics are usually shorter, more affordable and focused on skill-building, so they’re ideal for sharpening specific parts of your game in just a few hours.
Camps, on the other hand, can give you that extra edge by offering exposure to college coaches, which can be important for your recruiting journey. It’s all about whether you want to focus on skills or gain visibility. Learn more about the different types of softball events:
