Website update

As of December 1st, we have our own domain name ladyeaglessoftball.com, this website is still under construction and will hopefully be ready by the season. It will have tons of information on our softball program from rosters, stats, schedules, calendars, handouts, and much more. So, just be patient and you will soon be able to know everything there is to know about Lady Eagles Softball

Pitcher Catcher Workouts

Due to gym space, we will not be having pitcher/catcher workouts in December on Tuesday and Thursdays. However, pitchers and catchers can throw on Monday and Wednesday after hitting from 6:00 to 7:30. Pitchers and catchers may also be able to throw on Fridays depending on baseball and their use of the facility. If Friday catcher/pitcher workouts are possible it will be annoounced on Wednesdays.

WOW what a turnout!!

WE had 37 softball players working to make themselves better hitters today. Sorry we were a little behind but i wanted to make sure we got through the basics. Since we had such a great turnout I have decided to divide the group into 2 groups. All 7th and 8th graders will hit from 3:30 till 5:00, All 9-12 graders will hit from 4:15 til 6:00. By splitting the groups, it will allow for more individual instruction from the coaching staff. Also just a reminder that Tuesday/Thursday are pitcher catcher workouts. THANKS for the hard work ladies.

Off- Season hitting and pitching

Hope you all are excited as I am about getting things started!! As we get ready to do some off season workouts, i just wanted parents and players to know,these open gyms are not mandatory but optional. We are hoping these workouts will help develop hitters, pitchers and catchers and make us an overall better team. Players should bring cleats and tennis shoes and any other necessary equipment to practice.
Even though we are scheduled to be in the hitting facility on Monday and Wednesdays, if the weather is nice we will be going outside to do some drills also. On Tuesday and Thursdays we will be having catcher/pitcher practice at the middle school either inside or outside depending on the weather.
At hitting we will be working on the 5 step approach to hitting and how to bunt and slap. During this time we will also be videotaping and working individual with players as time allows.
