A great day for softball! Images from our Winter Warm-up Clinic


Nearly 60 girls from ages 7 to 10 joined 8 Mad River coaches and 8 of our big sister all-stars for a Sunday afternoon of great softball instruction and way too much fun than we should be having in February. The League had full use of Humboldt State's spacious Field House for the entire afternoon. The players, several of them on on a softball field for the first time, enjoyed rotating 30 minute sessions on hitting, infielding, catching and throwing, baserunning and pitching. While the weather outside would've been perfect for playing on a real diamond, the roof over our heads didn't diminish the sunny smiles of our coaches, all-stars, and players. Our thanks to everyone who came out to play, and especially to our Big Sisters who gave up an afternoon to help teach the next generation of great Mad River Softball players how to play this wonderful game.


Now, just a few pictures of yesterday's fun:

Snacks...of course.
