Hitting Information

AMSA coaches will be providing instruction to players throughout the season based on fundamental training from AMSA Player Development.  Teaching will be consistent throughout age groups to ensure that players continue to develop as they move through the system.
This section of the site will contain important information to help our players and parents to understand what is being taught and how to support the effort at home.

Player will be taught 'Elite' hitting mechanics, meaning the same movement patterns being used by the best hitters in the game.  There is no difference between an 'Elite' baseball and softball swing; girls, boys, women or men.  It is our intent to provide the best instruction possible to allow our players to continue to grow in the game.

Anyone interested in learning more about the technical instruction is invited to attend Softball Skills for Coaches training or contact the AMSA Player Development Coordinator.
