The hitting and slapping session will focus on all aspects of fundamental mechanics, including increasing power, bat speed, proper balance and footwork, and the mental aspects of hitting.

The defensive session will work on positional breakdown, proper mechanics and footwork, angles, glove work, throwing and situation instruction.
4:00 PM – 6:00 PM | Game Simulation Showcase
