Planet Fastpitch Futures Program

Denise Davis, with special arrangement with Kate Roberts, presents

The FUTURES Program for PITCHERS & CATCHERS.

This program will be built and implemented by Denise Davis. The powerful and dynamic team of coaches at PFP lends to an intense and high-energy learning environment. Just like the Varsity program, great levels of energy and focus will be given to the students of this program.

This 10 week FUTURES Program will run an abbreviated yet parallel curriculum to the Varsity Program.

**This is an EXCELLENT edge in the application process to the Varsity Program. There will be a small number of Varsity slots that will become available with the graduation of several seniors next spring. Earning a position in the main program will be a highly competitive event next year.

The FUTURES Program is a select program, with students that are chosen through an application process by Denise Davis. Students will be surrounded by high level athletes with similar work ethics and goals. The program is constructed, implemented by Denise, Kate and a team of other highly qualified instructors. It is a program developed to fully train the pitchers and catchers with the presentation of physical and mental strength and sports performance training, mechanics enhancement, timing work, speed measurements, plate strategy, alternate pitches, fielding position and overhand throwing, hitting and a total skills package. The program will also include LIVE PITCHING/HITTING competition in the inner squad challenge. Each session is 2 hours! Catchers will receive 30 minutes of additional training each week.

This program will be on the cutting edge of training and development. The students will be constantly monitored and well-cared for.

Who:

Only PITCHERS AND CATCHERS with serious goals and willingness to work hard and make positive change will be accepted. Players must be passionate about softball and becoming a well-rounded player as well as willing to commit practice time.
