Bluebird Notes!

We had a good first session last night! The girls were very focused! They did a great job.

A few notes:

Training
Training Thursday will be from 6-7:30. This will be our time going forward. We can get enough done in that time and get them out of there a little earlier. I just ask that they are there, stretched and ready to go right at 6. If girls have their own bats, they are welcome to bring them to any of the skills training. Also, I told the girls to keep sweats in their bags or lockers at school. Anytime over the winter that we can get outside on the turf, we will. If we have a winter like last year, that could be pretty often. I won’t make them freeze, but we can’t be afraid of a little cool weather!

Checks for the fitness training should be made out to Mehgan Sebastian. I haven’t told folks this and I owed this to a few parents that asked last night. Fitness training will start in a couple weeks.

Videos
From time to time, I will run across videos to share with the girls. This is something the girls will be able to view at home and maybe try to incorporate it into their skills. Most of these will be things we are teaching them or examples of elite players doing the right things. I want the girls to look at them and study what’s going on in the videos. A picture is worth a 1000 words!


Here’s an instructional video on throwing. Even if your daughter has a good arm today, these fundamentals can help with accuracy and velocity. We talked a little about this last night. This is a baseball video, but translates to softball.
