IOWA LAKES TO HOLD NINTH ANNUAL HITTING CLINIC IN JANUARY

Iowa Lakes Community College Head Softball Coach Mike Bosch and his staff will be conducting their ninth annual hitting clinic in late January.

The league is for female softball players in eighth through 12th grade and the cost is $50. The camp will be held on three consecutive Sundays (January 20, January 27 and February 3). The camp currently has two open sessions, one starting at 11:00 a.m. and one starting at 5:00 p.m. Players from Spirit Lake, Estherville Lincoln Central, Jackson County Central, North Kossuth and Okoboji should contact their high school coach as times have been pre-determined for those teams.

Coach Bosch and his staff were named the 2006 NFCA Midwest Coaching Staff of the Year and came off a season which saw three of Bosch’s players achieve All-American status. Their focus for this camp will be on recognizing faults in each player’s swing and self-correcting the problem.

The camp will also include hitting fundamentals, drill sequences to develop a good swing and video analysis using the Right View Pro video analysis system. The camp will also point out common hitting problems, show how to fix them and send each camper home with a DVD of their swing.
