Blue Demon Softball
2019 Winter Camp
Design Your Own Camp
January 12th or January 13th
Grades 7th - 12th
9:00am - 5:00pm
Saturday, January 12th Session is now FULL. Sunday still has openings.
This camp is perfect for those softball players who want to take charge of which skills they would like to improve in their game. The morning session of camp will be designated for sessions to "Improve Your Numbers". All campers will rotate through 3 sessions, where they will be measured and then taught skills to improve their ability in each area. This will be followed by an hour lunch break, which is on your own or you can bring a packed lunch.
The afternoon will be comprised of 4 sessions, designed by each camper. Each session will have 4 different options to choose between consisting of different focuses among Offensive, Specialty, Classroom or Defensive skills. The options are listed below or can be found on the Camp Brochure. All sessions will last 45 minutes and you will pick a different focus for the next round. It is a great way to ensure all campers are getting exactly what they want, because you choose which specific skills you want instruction on.
Our DePaul coaching staff will be conducting the camp, along with some Blue Demon softball players. Camp is open to any and all entrants in grades 7th-12th. We look forward to a full day of sharing our knowledge and working with each camper. Registration will begin at 8:15am with camp beginning promptly at 9:00am on both days.
