Fastpitch Nation 15th Annual Winter Individual Indoor College Showcase Jan. 20, 2024 at the University of Bridgeport.
This event allows softball players an opportunity to display their talents and work directly with college coaches from around the Northeast. EVEN BETTER! COLLEGE COACHES will run this event and work directly with the players through various stations and drills while also evaluating their skills. Yes, players will actually work with the college coaches! Coaches will also talk with the players directly about what it really takes to play college softball. This hybrid format has proven far more effective and rewarding than the format in which coaches simply watch from a distance only. There is a MAX of 90 players so register early.
Cost is $175 for a single session or $195 for both sessions. (Session 1: Pitcher or Catcher; Session 2: Infielder/Outfielder). Plus all players will participate in a Q&A directly with the coaches about playing college softball at the conclusion of the event. Players must be in High School. No 8th grade players.
This is the 2024 On-field staff. As other coaches let us know they will also attend to observe we will update the list.
