Softball Hitting Clinic

WESSON - Copiah-Lincoln Community College Lady Wolves will host an Offensive Skills Softball Clinic for players in grades 7-12 on Saturday, Feb. 6, from 1-4 p.m. at the Lady Wolves Field on the college’s Wesson Campus.

Detailed instruction will be given on all aspects of hitting, bunting, slapping, sliding and base-running. Co-Lin head coach Allen Kent, along with assistant coaches Duane Burt and Johnny Williams will direct the clinic with assistance from current Co-Lin players.

Proper mechanics of the grip, stance, bat angle, stride, swing and follow-throughwill be covered.  Countless drills and repetitions will help ingrain a proper swing, eliminating dipping, over-striding and other common swing faults.

The Lady Wolves have won back-to-back MACJC State Championships. The 2008 squad was National Runners-Up, as the Lady Wolves are consistently ranked in the NJCAA polls, boasting numerous All-Americans and Academic All-Americans. During Kent’s tenure, his teams have amassed a record of 210-68.

In the event of inclement weather, the clinic will be held in Co-Lin’s two gyms, so bring tennis shoes in case. Players may bring their own bat and helmet. Batting gloves are encouraged, due to the high number of swings that will be taken.

Cost for the clinic is $35 for those who pre-register. The cost is $40 on the day of the clinic. Secondary insurance coverage is provided.
