About Santa Monica Softball Academy

Camp Philosophy

Our goal is for all young girls to have a fun and safe experience while focusing on team play and individual skill development. Our camp will concentrate on throwing & catching drills and techniques, specialty position practice (pitching, catching, infield, and outfield), base-running, and live hitting. Our goal for young players is to inspire confidence, while having fun in a positive environment while also learning to the play the game from professional coaches. Attitude, effort, teamwork, leadership, and sportsmanship will be stressed throughout the week, while players learn correct softball fundamentals. Our goal is for all participants to leave camp with a high level of understanding of proper technique in all areas of the game. By incorporating drills and competitions developed over a lifetime of playing and teaching the game, players will gain a firm foundation in the fundamentals that will give them the confidence to compete and feel good doing it!

SMSBA SKILLS TABLE

BEGINNERS

INTERMEDIATE

BEGINNERS

- Players of all abilities are welcome. Complete fundamental instruction with beginning concepts, terminology, and knowledge of the game. Our instructional lessons will be the first fundamental steps toward competitive baseball. Players learn the fundamentals of softball and how to work as a team for a common goal. Players will learn the basics of hitting, base running, fielding. pitching and throwing techniques at this level. A stronger emphasis will be placed on playing by the rules and setting a strong fundamental softball foundation to ready players for higher level.

INTERMEDIATE

While the player should have basic fundamental skills, the goal of this division is to improve the player's skills and to place less emphasis on the competitive aspects of the game. Strong player development will be in effect at the intermediate level. The instructional design is to reinforce fundamental and introduce advanced concepts of youth softball in a friendly, yet competitive environment with a strong emphasis on instruction and skill development. The focus is still on fundamentals and building a solid knowledge of the positions; the approach and the physical demands of the game. The Intermediate aspects IMPROVES the player, to build confidence, to prepare the player for increased competition, teamwork and the necessary skill level that players will develop to progress towards their next division or tryout. Intermediate players will fine-tune their skills and develop teamwork to prepare them for the upcoming season. While many players will have basic skills, the goal of the Intermediate clinics is to improve these skills and more emphasis on getting the most out of the player at this stage of his or her development.

ADVANCE

INTERMEDIATE

ADVANCE

The player at this level has attained solid, strong, softball knowledge and skills. The players at this level have developed into strong, confident softball players. The pitching, fielding hitting is more skilled, player development is more advanced and position players are being taught advance techniques to further their skills. Advance players should demonstrate at all levels, the advance skills, leadership, and maturity with the ability to enhance their skills development, their rules knowledge, and situational softball play in a competitive environment. Pitching, catching, base running, fielding or hitting will not stop with coach intervention for introductory rules teaching. Pitching Catching, Base running, hitting, and fielding will be more aggressive in nature. Their will be more specialization and coaches will be moving at a faster pace. The use of “off-speed” pitches, high velocity at bats should be age appropriate when assessing classes. The Advance clinic provides increased competition, teamwork and skill level that players have developed over the years, with a strong emphasis on polishing skills, improving dynamics and/or taking the player to a whole new level or approach to the game. The advance level is demanding and requires players full and immediate concentration at all times!
